Donbass. Okraina

Jun 12 2019 N/A 1h 36m
War

In the center of the plot of the film is a young soldier of the Ukrainian army, Andrei Sokolov, who is sent to the combat zone as a driver. Fleeing from the shelling, Andrew finds himself in the basement of a dwelling house, where he meets different people, each of whom dreams of only one thing - so that the war will end as soon as possible.

Plot

Quite weak film that is definitely trying to promote official Russian position about the war in Ukraine (i.e. "not present" Russian soldiers there).Along with a lot of such political cliches there are funny obvious factual mistakes such as Ukrainian soldiers wearing Russian camouflage (they just put Ukrainian flags on it). So even from the point of view of standards of good war drama (if not talking about politics) "Donbass. Okraina" is a poor piece.But the main point is that this film pretend to be "based on a true story", that is a completely untruth.
