Synopsis
A powerful film diary capturing everyday life amid the war in Ukraine – filled with poetic images, quiet moments, and traces of destruction.
A poetic journey through Ukraine’s shifting landscapes where war becomes part of daily rhythm. Zhurba weaves together intimate moments of ordinary life, silences, and fragments of destruction into a film that feels like a diary of a country in turmoil. With its striking imagery and layered sound, the film meditates on resilience and fragility in equal measure. Premiered out of competition at the 2024 Venice Film Festival.
