Russians at War

Canada 2024 Documentary cor 129’

Anastasia Trofimova, a Russian-Canadian filmmaker, gains unprecedented access to follow a Russian Army battalion in Ukraine. Without any official clearance or permits, she earns the trust of foot soldiers and for much of 2023 embeds herself with the battalion as it makes its way across Eastern Ukraine. What she discovers is far from the narratives propagated by the East or West: a war cutting through family and historical ties, soldiers disillusioned and often struggling to understand what they are fighting for.

Presented at the Venice International Film Festival.
