"20 Days In Mariupol" Screening

Register

UACA🇺🇦 is collaborating with the DePaul CDM School of Cinematic Arts to host a screening of the 96th Academy Award® Winner (Best Documentary Feature Film), 20 DAYS IN MARIUPOL.

📹 An AP team of Ukrainian journalists trapped in the besieged city of Mariupol struggle to continue their work documenting atrocities of the Russian invasion. As the only international reporters who remain in the city, they capture what later become defining images of the war: dying children, mass graves, the bombing of a maternity hospital, and more.

After nearly a decade covering international conflicts, including the Russia-Ukraine war, for The Associated Press, 20 DAYS IN MARIUPOL is Mstyslav Chernov’s first feature film. The film draws on Chernov’s daily news dispatches and personal footage of his own country at war. It offers a vivid, harrowing account of civilians caught in the siege, as well as a window into what it’s like to report from a conflict zone, and the impact of such journalism around the globe. Even though it's a hard watch, 20 DAYS IN MARIUPOL is definitely a must-see!
