Songs of Slow Burning Earth, a haunting and powerful record of the war in Ukraine directed by Olha Zhurba, will be shown at the International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam from 15 to 23 November 2024. This will also mark its Dutch premiere.
Our Anne Köhncke co-produced alongside Kerstin Überlacker at the Swedish production company We Have a Plan. Songs of Slow Burning Earth was produced by Darya Bassel at the Ukraine-based company Moon Man, who also produced Outside, the first of Olha’s films that we co-produced.
Having had its world premiere at this year’s Venice International Film Festival, this is only a continuation of Songs of Slow Burning Earth’s amazing impact, and we can’t wait for you to see it!
The film is screening in the prestigious Best of Fests programme, which also features another FCFR title, Manon Ouimet & Jacob Perlmutter’s Two Strangers Trying Not to Kill Each Other.
