2000 METERS TO ANDRIIVKA

Opening Film – 2000 METERS TO ANDRIIVKA
Monday, July 7 – 6PM, Kino Meeting Point
Director: Mstyslav Chernov
Produced by the Oscar®-winning team behind 20 Days in Mariupol

WARM Festival 2025 opens with the latest documentary by our longtime friend and collaborator Mstyslav Chernov, whose award-winning work has previously been shown at WARM.

Following his searing chronicle of the siege in 20 Days in Mariupol, Chernov now turns his lens toward Ukrainian soldiers in 2000 METERS TO ANDRIIVKA, offering a personal and harrowing look at the human cost of the war’s frontline. Filmed during Ukraine’s 2023 counteroffensive, the documentary follows a Ukrainian brigade through a heavily mined and fortified forest as they attempt to liberate the Russian-occupied village of Andriivka, just two hours from Chernov’s native Kharkiv.

Through a powerful mix of original reporting, Ukrainian Army bodycam footage, and moments of intimate reflection, the film reveals the daily decisions, trauma, and determination of those who are fighting not just for land, but for survival, memory, and meaning.

This is the regional premiere of 2000 METERS TO ANDRIIVKA and marks the beginning of a week of films, exhibitions, and conversations that confront war through witness and art.

Free entry.
