About the Film "20 Days in Mariupol"
This film is a collaboration between the Associated Press and American documentarians from Frontline. The film was captured during the initial days of the Mariupol siege after the Russian forces started the full-scale invasion on February 24, 2022.
"20 Days in Mariupol" is a film by Ukrainian journalist and photographer Mstislav Chernov. The film's production also involved photographer Yevhen Malolietka and producer Vasylisa Stepanenko.
Arriving in the city on February 24, 2022, Chernov and Malolietka documented the work of doctors in local hospitals, recorded numerous civilian casualties, and left the city on March 15 as part of a convoy departing after the establishment of a humanitarian corridor.
The film portrays the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion, the bombing of the maternity hospital, and the rescue of the film's author and his colleagues from the Associated Press in the city surrounded by Russian forces.
In 2023, the film's creators were honored with the Pulitzer Prize in the "Public Service" category.
Another film about Ukraine, titled "From Where to Where," made it to the shortlist in the "Documentary Film" category. It offers a general portrait of Ukrainian refugees united by a common goal: finding a safe haven amid the war.
