Katerina Gordeeva's documentary about the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine consists of dozens of interviews with Ukranians that have been first-hand witnesses of the war. People from Mariupol, Bucha, Kyiv, Donetsk, Kharkiv, Volnovakha, Hostomel and other cities have participated in the making of the film. Gordeeva's interviewees recount how they found out about the invasion, how they hid from bombings and how they were forced to leave their homes.

Man and War

In the spring of 2017, the Investigation Committee conducted the first searches in the criminal case, which everyone now knows as the “Serebrennikov case”, “the Seventh Studio case” or “The Platform case”. Six people, among whom is a world-famous director, are accused of having stolen more than one hundred million rubles allocated for staging performances from the state. And for this they can go to jail for 10 years. Journalists Katerina Gordeeva and Roman Super tried to figure out the essence of this matter. We talked to people who know what theater is, including in terms of money. Studied financial documents. Communicated with those with whom no one had ever succeeded. They understood why the applause of the audience and the compliments of the Ministry of Culture turned into arrests. And of course, went to all court sessions.
