Ukrainian Film Series: "Mr. Jones" Screening
Ukrainian Film Days will start this Wednesday, September 13th 6-9 pm in MLB Auditorium 3 with a screening of “Mr. Jones” film - an important new historical drama with a very contemporary context. Released in the US in spring 2020, it sheds long overdue light on one of Stalin’s worst crimes, while also serving as a timely reminder that today’s talk of fake news is actually nothing new.
Written by Andrea Chalupa and directed by the Oscar-nominated director and screenwriter Agnieszka Holland, this joint Polish, Ukrainian, and British production follows one man’s struggle to expose Stalin’s man-made famine in Ukraine, a crime the Soviet regime was desperate to hide from the outside world.
