The Blessed

A documentary by Andrii Lysetskyi | 90 min | 2026 | UA, D, LV

Overnight, a group of idiosyncratic Ukrainians from the world of art are thrown into the world of war. Whatever your art is, be it filmmaking, visual arts or restoring historic buildings, you must answer one question - what can you, as an artist, do when the world around you is burning and people are subjected to indescribable suffering? You have to adapt, transform yourself and make sense of that world in flames, but can you still do it through art?
