A heart-breaking and sadly relevant film given the ongoing tragedy in the Ukraine. The only change I want to recommend is to give the audience a longer opportunity to interact with and to ask questions of the director.

It was a very thought provoking film of man's struggle against man.
We used to think that ethic and racial hatred was "Over There",
but this director brought home the suffering, particularly of women and children who are caught in this power grab of land and resources. There are many parallels with the Israeli army attacking Palestinians in occupied lands, which I read daily.

Love the idea of joint Olli and WACD presentations. Please continue as the response was great.
