On the eve of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, a team of Ukrainian journalists enter the strategic eastern port city of Mariupol. During the subsequent siege and assault, as bombs fall, inhabitants flee, and access to electricity, food, water, and medicine are severed, the team — the only international journalists left — struggles to cover the war atrocities and to transmit their footage out. Eventually surrounded by Russian soldiers, they shelter in a hospital, unsure of how they’ll escape.

Registered participants of the IPI World Congress are invited to attend a closed screening of this Academy Award®-winning FRONTLINE/AP documentary at the Bosnian Cultural Center. Ron Nixon, AP, Ukrainian journalist Valeriia Iegoshyna, and Editor-in-chief of slidstvo.info Anastasiya Stanko will join for audience Q&A following the film screening.
