“A RISING FURY” follows two hopeful Ukrainian idealists from the peaceful protest in Kyiv in 2013 to the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Pavlo and Svitlana met and fell in love at the Maidan Revolution and were filmed nearly 10 years with several expeditions to the frontlines of the war. When Russia invaded Crimea and Donbas in 2014, Pavlo lost his family home and joined the Ukrainian military effort. To defend his nation, he engages in deadly firefights against former friends and a close military instructor who join Russian forces. As Svitlana transports food and medical supplies, both find themselves on the battle lines, protecting their land, democracy, and their relationship. This film reveals the true untold story of how the Russo-Ukrainian war began nearly 10 years ago.
A RISING FURY will have a limited theatrical release in New York City from Oct 27th-Nov 2nd at Cinema Village Movie Theater. This release will commemorate the 10-year anniversary of the Revolution of Dignity in Ukraine. There will be Q&As with the filmmakers, discussions with special guests, as well as charity benefits to raise funds for Ukraine.
