WORLD PREMIERE
DIVIDED: What language do you express love in? is a journey through the territories of the first European civil war of the 21st century: in Ukraine, after the dramatic events which took place following the Maidan Square protests, nobody could foresee the outbreak of a civil war and the death of 10,000 Ukrainians. Two photographers, Giorgio Bianchi and Christopher Occhicone, with different political ideas and outlooks, give voice to individuals who are witnesses to the ideas of independence, each one in their own theatre of war. The documentary portrays and entwines these lives in the conflict which, between 2014 and 2019, shed blood on Ukrainian soil.
“Divided is a film that has followed an atypical creative path, due to the singular context in which it was made … We decided to build this film as if it were an exchange, often harsh, of points of view on the war and the reasons that triggered it; using the camera we tried to stage the debate which today is made impossible by weapons and propaganda.” (F. Schiavi, C. Reinhold)
