, the documentary directed by Sean Penn and Aaron Kaufman that has become one of the most eagerly-awaited premieres at the Berlin Film Festival.
In the clip, a handheld camera follows Penn as he weaves through underground passageways within Ukraine’s presidential palace, on his way to an extraordinary tête-à-tête with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. As the film explores, Penn had arrived in Ukraine in November 2021 in hopes of making a cinematic profile of the country’s dynamic but untested leader, little realizing he would get a first-hand view of one of the most explosive events of this century.
As it turned out, that would be the very day Russian President Vladimir Putin launched his brutal invasion of Ukraine. Instead of canceling the interview, Zelenskyy met with Penn in an unadorned subterranean room, discussing his country’s urgent need for support to repel the unprovoked Russian aggression.
The synopsis continues, “But on February 24, 2022, while Penn and Kaufman were filming in Kyiv, Putin’s invasion took the world by storm. As explosions rocked the city, they became inadvertent front-row witnesses to this historic ‘David and Goliath’ struggle.
