‘All Things Ablaze - Olexandr Techinskiy, Aleksey Solodunov & Dmitry Stoykov’

In the presence of the director Olexandr Techinskiy

(Ukraine, 2014, 90’; st. EN)

All Things Ablaze is not about the revolution that changed Ukraine, but shows a rising that ends in bloodshed. At first, a noble bid for freedom comes up against the dark force of repressive authorities. Finally, following confusion and chaos, people’s anger is transformed into indignation. When the first victims fall, the frontier between good and evil is blurred. And everything catches fire…
The film was shot during the demonstrations on the Euromaidan, from November 2013 to February 2014. All Things Ablaze won the MDR Film Prize for an excellent Eastern European documentary at DOK Leipzig in 2014.
