Pavel Mozhar uses the streets of his Berlin neighbourhood as the backdrop for an investigation into the systematic nature of Russian and Belarusian war crimes in Ukraine. Oleg Chorny films the inhabitants of Kiev, who try to maintain a peaceful way of life, despite massive attacks by Russian troops. Andriy Rachinskiy and Daniil Revkovakiy assemble archival videos collected or filmed by civilians before and during the Russian invasion of Ukraine. These precarious, authentic sequences made by witnesses risk being lost in the flow of images, but, put together, they communicate people's experiences and constitute evidence of the crimes. Pavel Mozhar: Unwanted Kinship | Documentary | 4k | colour | 0:30:00 | Germany | 2024The reports by civilian victims of the Russian and Belarusian occupation in Ukraine contain descriptions of torture and repression that appear to be systematic in nature. Taking those reports as a basis, a filmmaker born in Belarus investigates that systematic procedure on the streets of his Berlin neighbourhood. He also confronts the question of what this war of annihilation has to do with him and what responsibility he himself bears. BiographyBorn in Minsk, Belarus in 1987, he grew up in and around Berlin from the age of ten. From 2009 to 2012, he studied philosophy and economics at the University of Bayreuth. In 2015, he took up a film directing degree with a focus on documentary at the Film University Babelsberg Konrad Wolf. His short documentary “Handbook”, about the protests in Belarus in August 2020, won numerous awards, including Best Short Film at the IDFA in 2021. Mozhar’s most recent work is a short documentary “Unwanted Kinship” about the Russian war of extermination in Ukraine. Oleg Chorny: Kyiv in the Days of War | Documentary | 4k | colour | 0:03:09 | Ukraine | 2022On the 24th of February 2022 Russia launched a large-scale invasion of Ukraine. In the beginning of April the first massive attack of Russian troops was repulsed, but Kyiv is still suffering by air strikes. There are traces of war on the streets of the city.

Invasion | Documentary | hdv | colour | 0:56:38 | Ukraine | 2023"Civilians. Invasion", created in 2023, documents the experiences of Ukrainians during the Russian aggression against Ukraine. This invasion led to extensive documentation by civilians, soldiers, and journalists, resulting in a wealth of photo and video materials that made their way onto social media platforms. While some of this content went viral through Telegram channels and other social networks, many photos and videos remained relatively unknown with minimal views. The film is structured around a specific storyline, starting from the initial days of the invasion and unfolding the events related to how people navigate a new reality: how to live and survive, the risks faced by civilians during the conflict, episodes of housing destruction, and stories of those who have lost their loved ones.In 2024 "Civilians. Invasion" represents Ukraine at the 60th Venice Biennale.
