The screening of Sergei Loznitsa's Donbass

Wed 11th May 2022



The Light House cinema is to screen the Cannes award-winning feature film, Donbass by acclaimed Ukrainian filmmaker Sergei Loznitsa with support from SDGI and SPI. A short animation Kohanni (Deep Love) by Mykyta Lyskov will proceed the main screening. All proceeds from the night will be going to support Ukrainian filmmakers through two charity funds:

  • DOCUDAYS UA – who are raising money for Ukrainian filmmakers daringly documenting the events of the war in Ukraine: recording war crimes, filming footage for the international media and for their future projects which will tell the story of the war in Ukraine in their own words.

  • ICFR (Emergency Fund for Filmmakers) - The fund aims to help filmmakers with small grants to cover temporary relocation expenses legal and administrative fees (visas etc.) required during the current situation. The ICFR is run by the EFA, IDFA and IFFR.

Date: Monday, 16 May 2022
Time: 6pm
Venue: Lighthouse Cinema Smithfield, Dublin 7, D07 R6YE

You can also continue to support through an online raffle with amazing prizes donated by the Irish Film and TV Industry. We will be drawing the winners after the screening in the Lighthouse Cinema.
