CONTEMPORARY UKRAINIAN FILM 'DONBASS'!


Now this is a very contemporary Russian/Ukrainian film on which I am writing after classic Soviet films!

'Donbass' (2018) a film wrote and directed by Ukrainian Sergei Loznitsa who is known for documentaries! Its plot explore the mid-2010 conflict between Russian-supported Donetsk people and Ukraine! But genre is drama-satire or black comedy!

German Heino Deckert produced this film. Its shooting took place in Kryvy Rih, Ukraine. For that Romanian - cinematographer Oleg Mutu worked brilliantly. And Lithuanian Danielius Kokanauskis edited a film effectively! Artists like TamaraYatsenko, Irina - Zayarmiuk, Grigory Masliuk, Olesya Zhurakivska, Lyudmila Smorodina, Igor Kirilchatenko, Arsen Bosenko & Thorsten Merten played roles in it!

This film won award at 'Cannes Film Festival' and Lozintsa won 'Un Certain Regard'. He also won 'Best Director' at 'Cairo Internatioal Film Festival'. And this film won.. 'Golden Peacock Award' at our 'International Film Festival of India' (IFFI),
