Ukraine: Award-winning film 'Klondike' shows the toll of war on ordinary people

ENCORE! © FRANCE 24

Ukrainian writer-director Maryna Er Gorbach and film critic Lisa Nesselson join Eve Jackson in the studio to discuss a timely tale that's all too real about a pregnant woman refusing to leave her home on the Ukraine-Russia border when faced with war. Er Gorbach's award-winning feature "Klondike" shows the toll of war on ordinary people amid the Donbas conflict in 2014. She explains why she's part of a group of seven Ukrainian directors calling for a complete boycott of Russian artists.

We also discuss the breathtaking and much-anticipated film "Notre-Dame On Fire" from French director Jean-Jacques Annaud. It focuses on the night firefighters fought to save Paris's beloved Notre-Dame Cathedral from the flames.
