Militanropos of the the title refers to the state people adopt when entering the state of war. The film is a look at the people of Ukraine as they fight the Russians and fight with themselves simply to survive.
Made up of a series of visually stunning images that place us into Ukraine in a way that Have never experienced in the dozens of documentaries that I have seen on the war. The images are both stunningly beautiful and heartbreaking. The result is the film gives us a sense of the country that I have never seen before.
I have not seen anything like this on a movie screen-this needs to b seen as big as possible though I suspect it would be crushing in IMAX.
You need to see this. I find it hard to say more than that, not because I am being lazy, but rather this film is very visceral. The mix of sound and image move us on a level beyond words. Just go see this.
Hands down it is one of the best films on the fiasco in Ukraine and 2025 that I've seen.
Highly recommended.
