Divia
The film explores the catastrophic influence of the Russian invasion on nature in Ukraine.
“Divia” is a meditative, sound-driven journey through a wounded land – an elemental portrait of Ukraine before, during, and beyond the full-scale invasion. Without dialogue or narration, the film unfolds as a metaphysical symphony, where landscapes bear silent testimony to destruction and quiet resilience. Ashen forests, cratered fields, and the rusting skeletons of war machines haunt the frame – each image a trace of the violence etched into the soil. Yet, even here, nature does not pause. Seasons return. Grass pushes through scorched earth. Regeneration begins – slowly, insistently.
The film premiered at Karlovy Vary International Film Festival
