10 years after the release of his film Maidan, Sergei Loznitsa resumes his Ukrainian storytelling by documenting the country's struggle against the Russian invasion.

Een humanistisch filmmonumentje voor taaie, veerkrachtige mensen die onder extreme omstandigheden hun dagelijkse leven waardigheid blijven geven.

- Trouw ★★★★

Shot over a period of two years, the film portrays the life of the civilian population in Ukraine during times of war. The Invasion offers a unique and intimate testimony of Ukrainian resilience in the face of a barbaric invasion. In the second part of his Ukrainian diptych, Loznitsa paints a monumental canvas of a nation determined to defend its right to exist.
