about a full-scale invasion, what did you put into it? well, first of all, through myself, as a person, all the experiences that i also lived, and i tried to capture and broadcast, transform into the language of cinema, and the changes that are taking place, that i observe in our society, with reasons. and it is the film that examines, let's say, the first stage of these changes, because it seems to me that in the future, well, if a new page begins in our society, we get used to war, and close the door, sorry, i have here it's just from where, but also about... you still asked

about reviews, right? yes, i think you have read the reviews, well, i have only received positive ones so far, no one has scolded you yet, but listen, it is not for me to evaluate my film, there are special people for that, it is my job to make a film, release it to the world and to advance the narratives that are important to us, which are meant to disrupt the established. about ukraine, about our culture and , in general, about the war as a whole, that is why i laid, in this way, in my opinion, important and meaningful messages, which i hope will reach an international audience, not only to ours, because i tried to make this film both for ukrainians and for... a popular

audience, and i also think about whether the film will be, whether the film will be in today's context, and how it will be read several generations from now. it was important to me to make a film that would be understandable out of context, would be understandable to people who i will no longer remember, that is, i also thought about such categories when i was making, and when we were shooting, when we were editing, and when now we present the film. olva, you said that you invested some such moments, so about about our country, about some possible destruction of stereotypes, can you say what these are exactly, what are these moments, what exactly did you want to convey to foreigners and in what way? well, here not only for foreigners, but also for us, i will tell you, because ukrainians have a huge complex.

inferiority, ah, uh, it seems to me that the international audience is lulled by russian one-hundred- or two-hundred-year-old propaganda about people, for example, this scene, which, in my opinion, shows how our society is very, well, i'm proud, in fact, i even herself when saw what we shot and how it looks, i am proud of ukrainians, because we have very high spiritual values, and there are several scenes where we do not even realize or emphasize it, but i also wanted to ask olya about this and this film by a russian director , and who says that she is not russian, but russian-canadian?

because darya posel wrote a very resonant post, so she told me that you also had to see all this, i sincerely sympathize with you, although i myself sometimes watch some russian propaganda for reviews, but it's all terribly difficult to watch, but please tell us your impressions of this russian film, it is still russian, although it is positioned as a french-canadian one, and what were the main impressions you observed from the audience? at the venice film festival, because we are all constantly scared that russia is pushing its propaganda and everyone is following it, is it really so, does it really go down very well with the film festival audience? ah, yes, this movie is made to the max, and this movie is made to be just rocked on international audience. which, let's say,

plays pacifism and is under the spell of this darkness, it seems to me that this is already a topic of shame when you try to... justify everyone, but it seems to me that this is the justification of war criminals at a time when they are still committing crimes, this is also a crime, and i spoke a little about it at our press conference, because at that time there was no opportunity to watch a russian film, because it was after ours, but i read the synopsis and treatment of this director, i also got acquainted with its biography, and the fact that the director worked until here... in 2017, the propagandist russian broadcaster rasha today, who is now calling for the genocide of the ukrainian people in general, excuses himself, tells me much more than any of the films out there, even

in the process of the film, or any danks, that is, i no longer trust, let's say, a person who worked after, for example, the occupation, she can no longer be disengaged. and of course i was asked this question at the press conference and then i went to see this film purely with socio-anthropological such a point of view that i think it is important to know even not so much about the film, how the audience reacts to such films, because in principle this film was obvious to me what it was about... but i was curious how the international audience reacts, and at the premiere, it seems to me that there were actually more foreigners, and that is why it is difficult to say here, but the very fact that this film was given

this platform and the very fact that both the director and the team of the company, which by the way there... and canada, and these producers, also watched the press conference this team, and it seems to me that it does not seem, i'm just sure that this should become part of the crime in general, that they now instead of imprisoning, roughly speaking, these people, play, yes, so that they are responsible for all war crimes. this team justifies them, and this is such a blurring of the position in general, it is even more of a prolongation of the war, and it seems to me that this is catastrophic, well, catastrophic in fact, a painful situation, and we need, as the ukrainians

should do now, to work out a strategy, how to do this so that this movie just goes nowhere didn't get in but we heard you, thank you for telling us about it, well, we will work out some kind of strategy with the new minister, we will gather at the ministry of culture and somehow ask the new minister to try to do something, especially since they say that he understands all the issues, i will say the last thing you friends, that big film festivals are still big, they remain in many respects. on the one hand, russophile, because if you have been told for many years about the great russian culture, about promoting russian cinema, because russia really is made, very, very much money, always invested there in the development of its culture, especially for export, so that everyone in the world admired

this culture, people got used to it and by inertia respected russian culture, their representatives, artists, on the one hand, there is such an attitude, and on the other hand there is russian money with which it is quite possible to bribe someone, we cannot assert anything, but more than once we have had direct conversations with our moviegoers, which are well or or directly bought, for example, selectors there at various film festivals, i.e. people who select films, that is, they took the russian film, selected it, and because of that it was shown at the venice film festival, or... there are also a lot of russians at the cannes film festival, a lot of russians at the berlinale, they come, they buy films from various producers, because at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the big majors, i.e. the american film studios, the big producers all left the russian

market in unison, and the european producers, on the contrary , entered there even more, because there was room, and for example, the french are now making great money on the russian market, because russia... there is nothing to watch anymore, although they watch it well, because they simply steal these american films and show them in cinemas, but the french, germans, italians are doing great feel in those markets, unfortunately, the following story is happening, when money, sentiments, long-term informational and cultural policy of russia are doing their job, and ukrainian state policy, on the contrary, is taking a back seat, and this is taking into account the fact that we have resources, taking into account to the fact that we have a lot artists who make very good works, who shoot good movies, and well, let's go, i 'll repeat myself once again to watch. and to speak with the new minister of culture and strategic communications, friends, i bid you farewell, i wish

you a good and restful weekend and see you next week. in september, there are discounts on... a lift of 10% in psyllany bam and oskad pharmacies. there are separate court discounts for september. 15% at podorozhnyk, bam and oskad pharmacies. in september, there are discounts on motorbikes. 10% at podorozhnyk, bam and oskad pharmacies. every week, the saturday political club helps. understand processes taking place in ukraine and the world. vitaly portnikov, khrystyna yatskiv, andriy

sumyshchyna is currently the focus of our attention. this region, even after liberation from the russian occupiers, continues to constantly suffer from enemy shelling. and first , let's look at the material of my colleague artem lagutenko about reconstruction in trostyanka, sumy oblast. on the 23rd, there was a massive shelling of the hospital, when a tank drove onto a parallel street and hit directly. heads the city hospital of trostianets, the man remembers... the horrors of the occupation in 2022, one long month lasted for an eternity, the infectious department was even more damaged, the roof was demolished, the oxygen station was completely damaged, the buildings of the hot corps were damaged, the maternity ward was hit,

the operating theater was completely burned out, the equipment and the building itself were destroyed, well, the bug. the polyclinic was damaged, the polyclinic was completely destroyed. the hospital receives patients not only from trustianets, but also from nearby settlements. constant shelling did not prevent them from doing this even during the occupation. we accepted eight births, in basements, yes, we had nine children. then, these women in labor with their children were transported by our employees on disabled troops around trosyanets through checkpoints and. this, it was, really what it, these are heroes, people were heroes. the trostyanets city hospital is very large, it serves half a thousand people every day. the restoration of the institution has become almost a priority task for the city. the city hospital of trostanets, during, in 2022 , during a full-scale invasion, suffered

significant destruction up to approximately 30%. the cost of repairs is over uah 90 million, imported. okay the clinic was taken over by the recovery service of the sumy region, and useful innovations were promised. we provide landings, ramps, special lifting machines, everything to make it convenient for people with reduced mobility. also , in the restoration project, we provided for energy-saving measures, namely , insulation of basements. the trostyanets hospital is being restored in full swing and... what does the destroyed department of the polyclinic look like, everything was done, the gossip was lined, painted, ceilings were made, doors, all communications were changed, that is, completely the complex of all works is done, the volume is completed somewhere 90-95%, finishing works, these are porches,

the main thing, the main work on insulation has already been done. the hospital is not the only object in the city that was undertaken by the regional restoration service, that is, the restoration of the railway station, the restoration of two residential five-story buildings, the city hospital and the public road of state importance n-12, connecting sumy to poltava. in just one month of occupation, trostyanets suffered significant destruction, this is the local city. and how big is the damage here in general, and what is the percentage station destroyed, shall we say? i think about 60%. the invaders used the station as a firing position and ammunition depots, so the fire of our defenders was concentrated on it. it is planned that 22 objects will be restored,

in particular, the bus station and the adjacent platform will be restored. train station, pharmacy, public catering. the city council of trostianets assures that the destruction set back the city's development for 10 years, but the restoration of the destroyed objects is in full swing, the hospital and some residential buildings are promised to be handed over by the end of the year artem lagutenko, oscar yanson, espresso tv channel. and let's talk in more detail about the reconstruction of the region. by mr. smaga, the head of the infrastructure restoration and development service in the sumy region. i congratulate you. good day panoviksal. mr. ivan, how do you assess the current progress of reconstruction of housing and infrastructure facilities in sumy oblast, and are only the facilities that were damaged during the occupation of the region being rebuilt, or have they already begun to restore

the recently destroyed ones? all construction works carried out by the service restoration. development of infrastructure in the sumy region is carried out according to the approved schedule and the established budget. currently, the restoration service is rebuilding objects that were damaged during the occupation, and we do not have new objects at the moment. i would like to point out that the list and number of objects is determined not by the restoration service, but by the cabinet of ministers, so eh... we perform the tasks set before the state, our services, on time and in the budget with quality, and everything for the community and people. and how difficult is it now? restore objects, considering the security situation in sumy oblast. oh, thanks for the good question. indeed, on the territory of the region there are very frequent alarms, we

faced a lack of specialists, there are constant rocket and mortar strikes from the enemy, but i want to note that we, ukrainians, an infamous nation, the people of sumy are hardy people, so we try to do the work. on time and despite the current security situation in the region, all restoration projects will be completed according to the plans of its management, mr. ivan, what is the situation with roads and bridges in sumy oblast, for reasons for reasons of security, we cannot show them or indicate any exact locations, but please tell us about the scope of the works carried out and why these works are important now, how it improves military logistics, i would like to note that... that in general, the repair and automobile maintenance of the existing infrastructure is carried out here within the limits of strict economy, because

we do not have a road budget, it was handed over to the ministry of defense, and the service performs maximum, maximum quality and maximum discretion repairs, liquidation of the emergency room, repairs on... damaged road clothing on all roads, which are there, but we are saving, we are doing everything in order to ensure that the infrastructure is in proper condition, frankly, we cannot talk about anything more, but here are the problems and difficulties faced by citizens whose housing was damaged due to the aggression of arefia, it is necessary to understand that we have a very specific region. er, this is an outpost of ukraine, and a lot of border forces and settlements were constantly shelled by the enemy, so a significant part

of the population emigrated to the middle of the region, and in fact, it was very difficult for people who were changing their place of residence to find rented housing, and the main warehouse at the beginning for citizens who... we are restoring housing, it was to find shelter at first, but torostyanitsa city council, people, public organizations helped people on beginners, so that people can find shelter while we carry out the restoration and repair of all the houses that we have in our program. thank you for the clarification, for the conversation and most importantly, i thank you for your work. with us was ivan smaga, head of the service from renewal and development of infrastructure in the sumy region. we are adding to our conversation olena shulyak, people's deputy, chair of the parliamentary committee on the organization of state power, local self-government,

regional development and urban planning. mrs. olena, congratulations. we are talking about rebuilding damaged or destroyed homes and infrastructure facilities in different regions of ukraine. with you, we want to focus on how this process continues. this is how you assess the progress of the reconstruction of our state in ukraine. small population points, in particular on the border, which were significantly destroyed by the enemy, where should the local authorities turn for reconstruction? and good afternoon, let's give some numbers, and first of all , it should be noted that the world bank, together with the ministry of reconstruction, have already made an appropriate assessment of the damage caused by russia as a result of a full-scale invasion three times, the last time such an assessment was presented in 24th of the year and took into account all the data at the end of the 20th of 2023. according to these data, we need

at least 486 million dollars for recovery. and direct losses, caused by russia as a result of the destruction damage, amount to more than 150 billion dollars. and the top three damages and destructions are the residential sector, this is the transport infrastructure and this... this is of course, unfortunately, the infrastructure that works in the field of energy. this data was recorded at the end of the year 23, i repeat, and it does not take into account the latest damage, the destruction that russia caused in 2024, i think that the next assessment of the world bank, it will include much larger, larger numbers than this assessment that was taking place directly in the 23rd year. if we talk about how the reconstruction is taking place, we have three levels, that is, the local level, the regional level and the central level, there are such objects

that are damaged, with which the relevant local authorities can work, funds from the local budget can be used , and there are objects where the community cannot, the local self-government body cannot cope with such challenges, and here, of course , the military administration comes to the rescue, and there is a lot of damage, for example, when several communities on the territory of the same region, it may refer to the same energy infrastructure or transport. infrastructure, here, of course, the military administration is involved and helps, and the whole process accompanies from the planning of such restoration or repair of the damaged, to the direct commissioning, well, there are objects where the ministry of reconstruction, which works through its agency, is directly involved restoration, the last such example is large, significant, you remember this when there was destruction

kokhovskaya hydroelectric power plant and it is necessary... it was necessary to start work on the creation of a new water supply very quickly, because more than 1 million people could be left without drinking water, then all the coordination of such a large object takes place directly, directly at the level of the ministry, of course this cooperation takes place both with the involvement of the military administration and with the involvement of the relevant communities, and only when all branches of government are working. in a coordinated way, you can achieve a quick, fast and effective result, but of course, how to make such a statement appeals, here is the head of the city, for example, has a real problem, an object has been destroyed that really needs the intervention of the regional military administration, and possibly the ministry, how quickly and how simplified is the procedure for filing appeals? and i think that today there is appropriate

coordination with... the military administrations , no, it does not work there in the form of a specific appeal, as far as i know, every head of the military administration, he is in contact with all the heads of communities, with the heads of cities, he , the whole whole the military administration, it clearly records and knows where the destruction is taking place, and some can offer a quick way to solve the problem, let's not forget that what... now the ministry of reconstruction has worked very closely with our international partners, with international partners they also worked and military administrations and the municipalities themselves worked directly, and today, if we are talking about large objects, it is possible to receive appropriate credit from large banks, for example, such as the european investment bank or the development bank of the council of europe, this lending has a low interest rate and is given for... quite

a long period, there are also a lot of grant programs that are also provided by our international partners, with international partners, i repeat, all levels work, and depending on , the size of such destruction or damage, international partners join in such reconstruction, well, let's not forget also that at the local level there are direct contacts and direct relations with sister cities, with the governments of other countries. with various benefactors helping out rebuild certain objects. for example, through the united 24 platform, i will remind you that this platform unites five areas, and one of these areas where funds are collected is precisely the issue of reconstruction and the issue of restoration, on this platform in the 23rd year more was collected than uah 12 billion, and one of the successful projects, when... the platform

collected money, and then housing was restored, these are exactly 18 houses in the kyiv region, where almost new houses have already been built with the money of benefactors, the entire procedure of restoring such houses is carried out under supervision of international institutions, independent technical supervision, very transparent and accountable processes for such a restoration. and this is also one of the few examples, there are a lot of different such data across the country, where, where you can record, where benefactors are directly working with projects related to reconstruction. you mentioned a really big, powerful waterworks project, which was built and is already working, after the enemy destroyed the kakhovka hydroelectric plant, but speaking...
