DONBASS
a film by :Sergei Loznitsa
In the Donbass, a region of Eastern Ukraine, a hybrid war takes place, involving an open armed conflict alongside killings and robberies on a mass scale perpetrated by separatist gangs.
In the Donbass, war is called peace, propaganda is uttered as truth and hatred is declared to be love.
A journey through the Donbass unfolds as a chain of curious adventures, where the grotesque and drama are as intertwined as life and death.
This is not a tale of one region, one country or one political system. It is about a world, lost in post-truth and fake identities. It is about each and every one of us.
Dans le Donbass, région de l'est de l'Ukraine, une guerre hybride mêle conflit armé ouvert, crimes et saccages perpétrés par des gangs séparatistes.
Dans le Donbass, la guerre s'appelle la paix, la propagande est érigée en vérité et la haine prétend être l'amour.
Un périple à travers le Donbass, c’est un enchainement d’aventures folles, dans lesquelles le grotesque et le tragique se mêlent comme la vie et la mort.
Ce n’est pas un conte sur une région, un pays ou un système politique mais sur un monde perdu dans l’après-vérité et les fausses identités. Cela concerne chacun d’entre nous.
