About the Exhibition

On Sunday 7th of July we’re excited to invite you to a short film screening hosted by KiNO. You'll have the opportunity to see a curated selection of short documentaries, animated works, and experimental films. Many of our teenage students, whose works will be shown, have been with us for two years, resulting in serious, professional, and thoughtful works on topics that personally interest them.

The films will cover a range of subjects, including nostalgia for pre-war times, our reliance on others' opinions, the experience of flying from Ukraine when the war started, coping with the stress of academic challenges, self-acceptance, and declarations of love for one's city. The goal of the screening is not just to watch and experience the films but also to interact with the filmmakers themselves.

After the screening, we'll hold a Q&A session with these talented Ukrainian teenagers and young adults during which you’ll have the chance to ask them questions as well as engage with the founders of the project and our special guest.

Tickets for the event are donation-based, so you can pay as much as you want. All contributions go directly towards funding the KiNO Project and supporting our mission.

We’d love for you to join us to celebrate the creativity and resilience of these incredible young filmmakers and join the discussion about their artworks. See you there!
