Time to the Target (Laiks līdz mērķim/Chas Pidlotu), dir. Vitaly Mansky, 179’, Latvia/Czech Republic/Ukraine, 2025
For the past three years, Ukraine has been fighting for its independence against Russian aggression. What does a "peaceful life" look like far from the front lines, in the rear? For a year and a half, film director Vitaly Mansky has been documenting life in his hometown of Lviv, where people’s daily existence is affected by the constant threat of enemy missiles. The time it takes for these missiles to reach their targets now shapes the life of every Ukrainian.
