ABOUT THE FILMS:

MY JOY, 2010, Dir. Sergei Loznitsa, 128 Mins, Kino Lorber, Ukraine/Netherlands/Germany/France

In Russian with English subtitles.

Truck driver Georgy (Viktor Nemets) sets out on a provincial Russian highway for a routine delivery, but after a series of chance encounters his journey spirals out of control. A roadside police check, a talkative war veteran, and a too-young prostitute lead him to a village from which there appears to be no way out where the locals struggle to survive a tough, elemental world, and the past holds a vise-like grip over their everyday lives. Caught in a merciless dead end, Georgy’s unexpected fate is the crux of Loznitsa’s unique and original feature debut.

FORMAT: DCP

DONBASS, 2018, Dir. Sergei Loznitsa, 122 Mins, Film Movement, Ukraine

In Russian, Ukrainian and English with English subtitles.

In the Donbass region of Eastern Ukraine, mid-2010s: a hybrid war takes place, involving an open armed conflict alongside killings and robberies on a mass scale perpetrated by Russian-separatist gangs. In the Donbass, war is called peace, propaganda is uttered as truth, and hatred is declared to be love. Life is suffused with fear and suspicion. What is real and what is fake news?
