The Lost Paradise

Directed by Roman Bondarchuk

After Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022, the village of Stara Zburivka in the Kherson region was occupied by invaders, and its head, Viktor Marunyak (one of the heroes of the 2015 film Ukrainian Sheriffs), was tortured in Russian captivity and then forced to leave. The film is made in the format of an interview with Marunyak, but in reality it is something much more: a meditation on the relativity of all earthly problems.
