Time Machine Maidan (2026) Sheffield Doc Fest (2026)


This is a docufiction essay portrait of the battle of Maidan in the Ukraine. It’s a mix of reality and fiction based on reality. For example the main character is based upon a number of young people who went to the front line.

This is a trippy film. Told from a first-person point of view the film drifts through time where it uses footage of actual events to create a real sense of being there in the moment.


This is one of the best films I’ve seen on Ukraine. It’s not that the film gives us tons and tons of fact but instead it creates a head space. This is not us witnessing things, rather this us our living the events. Yes, we are seeing it through another person’s eyes but it presented in such a way that we are living it.

This is magnificent achievement.

If you are growing weary with all the Ukraine films and need to see something that will restore your faith in subject and humanity, see TIME MACHINE MAIDAN.
