Visions du Réel expresses its solidarity with Ukraine and presents the selection of the Grand Angle and Latitudes sections

Visions du Réel is joining the international movement of solidarity with the Ukrainian people, who are fighting for their freedom. We express our support for Ukrainian artists and filmmakers, and for all those whose lives are threatened and upended by the war. We strongly condemn the ongoing Russian invasion.

At the same time, the Festival wishes to convey its support for the Russian artists and citizens who are currently expressing their resistance.

The 2022 official selection notably includes A House Made of Splinters, presented in the Grand Angle Competition, a film about the fractures caused by the war in Eastern Ukraine. Moreover, the line-up will feature three other films directed and/or produced in Ukraine; these titles will be announced on 15 March when we will unveiled the full programme.
