Ukraine’s Battle to Save their Cultural Heritage
film synopsis
On February 24th, 2022, tens of thousands had to flee their homes and Ukraine found itself in a war for more than just their land and lives, but for their cultural heritage. Museums faced a dilemma: how to secure and keep safe thousands of art pieces that were unique to Ukraine? Oleksandra Kovalchuk, Acting Director for Odesa Museum of Fine Arts, was one of those that fled to safety, a mid-30’s new mom who was determined to rally support for each and every museum desperate to find resources to pack and secure each piece. But then where to store it? Where to hide it from an invading army with intents on eliminating all that makes Ukraine its own country?
Oleksandra, seeing her country’s art and culture as “dreams and hopes”, has united the museum workers she left behind and organized an incredible international endeavor to save all the art she can, all while her country is under siege. Since the beginning of the war, they’ve managed to channel funds for more than 40 art institutions in Ukraine. From Kiev to Odesa, our film follows six brave women who brought together international partners to keep the “dreams and hopes” of Ukraine alive in their darkest hour.
