Sundance 2023: “20 Days In Mariupol” Wins Audience Award

Posted on January 28, 2023 by admin

Directed by Ukrainian AP video journalist Mstyslav Chernov, the documentary tells the first hand account of early days of invasion in Mariupol, Ukraine.

Mstyslav Chernov is a Ukrainian war correspondent, filmmaker, photographer, and novelist. He is known for his coverage of the Ukrainian revolution; the Russian invasion in Ukraine; the wars in Iraq, Syria, Nagorno-Karabakh, and Afghanistan; as well as for his art installations and exhibitions. Chernov is an Associated Press journalist, and the President of the Ukrainian Association of Professional Photographers.

The documentary follows a team of Ukrainian journalists enter the strategic eastern port city of Mariupol on the eve of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

During the subsequent siege and assault, as bombs fall, inhabitants flee, and access to electricity, food, water, and medicine are severed, the team – the only international journalists left – struggles to cover the war atrocities and to transmit their footage out. Eventually surrounded by Russian soldiers, they shelter in a hospital, unsure of how they’ll escape.

Ukrainian filmmaker and journalist Mstyslav Chernov offers a window into the practices of conflict zone reporters and an unflinching, anguishing account of the 20 days he and colleagues Evgeniy Maloletka and Vasilisa Stepanenko spent covering Mariupol. Their footage, widely disseminated through news media, not only documents the death and destruction – corpses in the streets and mass graves, the bombing of apartment buildings and a maternity ward, doctors despairing children they couldn’t save – but directly refutes Russian misinformation. Seeing so much death, Chernov wonders how capturing any more could make a difference. But residents implore them to let the world bear witness.

Swamp Thing Meets Robocop In New Enviro-Dystopian Thriller Junk Rabbit

Posted on January 25, 2023 by admin

Fan-favorite creator Jimmie Robinson (Bomb Queen) puts a new spin on a dystopian tale of climate disaster in the upcoming Junk Rabbit. This all-new ongoing series will launch from Image/Shadowline Comics in April 2023.

In Junk Rabbit, a new hero rises from heaps of consumer waste, mass homelessness, and devastating climate change. Some call the hero a myth, an urban legend, but others know that it’s the Junk Rabbit come to life—and now it’s on a bloody path of revenge against those who created it.

“The iconic heroes of today will not reflect the future we inherit. Junk Rabbit was born from the idea that the trash we discard today creates the heroes we deserve tomorrow, said Robinson. “I’m excited to explore this series through Image/Shadowline Comics because they understand that new ideas and stories creates the comics we deserve tomorrow.”

This new enviro-thriller explores a worst-case-scenario that alters not only our world and the heroes that literally rise from its ashes—but also how one family can change the future by unlocking the secret of the Junk Rabbit.
