The Q&A session following a showing of “20 Days in Mariupol,” a Sundance world cinema documentary at the Gateway Megaplex on Saturday, began with tears.
“20 Days in Mariupol” shows Ukrainian journalists photos and video footage from the port city during war with Russia.
Though her face was red from crying throughout the movie, she spoke to the crowded theater about her friends and family in Ukraine. When she told the film team — director Mstyslav Chernov, field producer Vasilisa Stepanenko, photographer Evgeniy Maloletka and editor Michelle Mizner — leading the Q&A she was from Mariupol, Chernov stepped forward to embrace her in a hug.
“I know that it’s not easy to watch,” Chernov said. “But I want to put this into perspective: These are 20 days, right? It has been almost a year of the full-scale invasion ... what you’ve seen here, happens every day.”The documentary, narrated by Chernov, also touches on issues surrounding credible news, propaganda and communication issues.
