Ukrainian movie ’20 days in Mariupol’ became the winner of Oscar 2024 as the best documentary feature film.
The film was directed by Mstyslav Chernov, Michelle Mizner and Raney Aronson-Rath.
’20 days in Mariupol’ is the first Ukrainian movie to win the Oscar award.
The documentary tells about the siege of Mariupol by Russian troops in 2022. As a full-scale Russian invasion begins, a team of journalists trapped in the besieged Mariupol struggles to continue their work documenting the tragedies of war.
During the ceremony, Mstyslav Chernov said he wished the film had never been made.
’Probably I will be the first director on this stage who will say I wish I’d never made this film. I wish to be able to exchange this to Russia never attacking Ukraine, never occupying our cities,’ Chernov said.
Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.
