In yet another sign of the continued resilience and determination of the Ukrainian people, the fifth edition of the Ukrainian National Film Critics Circle Award, dubbed Kinokolo, pressed ahead with its ceremony on Thursday, in spite of an ongoing war in the country.
The ceremony was held in a bunker in Kyiv and broadcasted live on national public TV channel Suspilne Kultura from the underground studio, remarkably just days after Russian airstrikes targeted key infrastructure in the capital city and destroyed 30% of the country’s power stations, according to President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Local film critics recognized projects such as Dmytro Sukholytkyi-Sobchuk’s Cannes Director’s Fortnight title Pamfir, Maryna Er Horbach’s Klondike and Natalka Vorozhbyt’s Are you Ok?
Pamfir, a drama about a man who faces small town corruption in Western Ukraine after returning from working abroad, came away with the most awards, nabbing Best Feature Film and Best Director and Best Scriptwriter for Sukholytkyi-Sobchuk as well as the Discovery of the Year prize for best full-length debut.
