“Essential. A relentless and truly important documentary” – The New York Times
Join the World Affairs Council of Jacksonville and WJCT Public Media for a screening of 20 Days in Mariupol, the 2024 Best Documentary Feature Film Academy Award winner. J.P. Natkin, chief business officer for Macro-Advisory Ltd., Eurasia Strategic Consulting will provide context for the film.
After nearly a decade covering international conflicts, including the Russia-Ukraine war, for The Associated Press, 20 Days in Mariupol is Mstyslav Chernov’s first feature film. The film draws on Chernov’s daily news dispatches and personal footage of his own country at war. It offers a vivid, harrowing account of civilians caught in the siege, as well as a window into what it’s like to report from a conflict zone, and the impact of such journalism around the globe.
