ICA EXCLUSIVE Atlantis
Institute of Contemporary Arts
Atlantis, dir. Valentyn Vasyanovych, Ukraine 2019, 104 min., Ukrainian with English subtitles

Eastern Ukraine, 2025. The war has ended, leaving the country in ruins – and Sergey (Andriy Rymaruk), a former soldier suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, is struggling to his new reality. After losing his job as a steelworker, Sergey joins Katya (Liudmyla Bileka) as a volunteer for the Black Tulip Mission, recovering the degraded bodies of soldiers killed in the conflict – and hoping to understand if, and how, he might shape for himself a better future.

Winner of Best Film in the Horizons section of the 76th Venice International Film Festival, Valentyn Vasyanovych’s post-apocalyptic drama is an urgent parable of life after war. Featuring a largely non-professional cast (including Ryamaruk, himself a veteran of the Donbas War), Atlantis is an once a bleak tale about the horrors of conflict – and an optimistic reassurance that another world might be possible.

This is an ICA Exclusive project.
