Maidan Nezalezhnosti, or Independence Square, is the central square of Kiev, which gave its name to the large-scale anti-government movement that unfolded in Ukraine in the winter of 2013-2014. A movement that led to the overthrow of the existing regime. However, the happiness of the newfound freedom was overshadowed by the ensuing Russian annexation of Crimea and bloodshed in Eastern Ukraine, inflamed, controlled from Russia. This film is a kind of selection of people's documentary news made on the Maidan in Kiev, in the Crimea and Moscow. The authors shoot their "news" without looking back at ideology, censorship and the logic of war.
Reviews
A lot of fun.
A different way of telling a story
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
