The most important Ukrainian film festival has been suspended
The Docudays International Documentary Film Festival, the largest film festival in Ukraine, will not be held in Kyiv until further notice due to the war.
Theater News Base: Docudays International Documentary Days Festival in Ukraine announced that since the Russian Federation has launched open and full-scale hostilities on Ukrainian soil, the festival team has decided to hold the film event until the suspension of martial law and the cessation of Russian attacks on Postpone Ukrainian territory.
Docudays International Documentary Film Festival is the largest Ukrainian film festival, first launched in 2003 as a platform for films that promote human dignity and engage audiences with civic issues and society as a whole. The importance of this cinematic event increased and the festival usually hosted 20,000 to 20,000 spectators before the Corona epidemic.
Due to the impossibility of holding it in the current situation, the “Docudays” festival has started raising funds for Ukrainian filmmakers who are trying to document the war in this country.
