Mstyslav Chernov

On the eve of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, a team of Ukrainian journalists enter the strategic eastern port city of Mariupol. During the subsequent siege and assault, as bombs fall, the team — the only international journalists left — struggles to cover the war atrocities and to transmit their footage out.

From the award-winning team behind 20 Days in Mariupol, 2000m to Andriivka documents the toll of the Russia-Ukraine war from a personal and devastating vantage point. Following his historic account of the civilian toll in Mariupol, Mstyslav Chernov turns his lens towards Ukrainian soldiers and the impossible decisions they face as they fight for every inch of their land.
