Synopsis

One year after the beginning of the war in Ukraine, philosopher Bernard-Henri Levy takes us to the heart of the conflict through this war diary made during the second half of 2022. From Kharkiv, in the Donbass, to Kherson, in the aftermath of the city's liberation, this documentary bears witness to the ravages of war through the testimonies of soldiers, chronicles of the front and portraits of civilians, and shares with us the struggle of the Ukrainian people.

The film will be distributed in France by ARP Sélection and will be in theaters on February 22, 2023.

Julia Schulte (SVP International Sales at France tv distribution) and Renan Artukmaç (Deputy SVP International Sales at France tv distribution):

"Slava Ukraini goes on a journey through the attacked territories of Ukraine which gives a voice to the brave who do not give up to fight for their country,their freedom and democracy. For us it is an important statement of solidarity."
