Hero of My Time

"During the war, cinemas are in a tough situation, primarily due to constant air alarms, due to which we interrupt the screening of the film and evacuate our guests. And it is possible that war is not the best time for events, but we believe that culture is one of the pillars on which our national identity is based, so the more cultural events, the stronger we become! That's why we decided to organize a film festival to draw attention to the best pictures of the new wave ", - said Tolik Kozlovsky, Marketing Director of "Planet Kino".

The festival was organized by "Planeta Kino" and the Gogol.Media project. It will take place in the network's cinemas in Lviv and Kyiv; screenings will take place on May 19-22 and 26-29. The screenings will start at 18:00, and after watching each film there will be a discussion in the format of an offline podcast. The programme is available by the link.

The films are provided by Arthouse Traffic and FILM.UA Distribution.
