The film screenings will take place in several American cities with the support of the Embassy of Ukraine in the United States and the Leonid Foundation. The main goal of the event is to draw the attention of local politicians, media representatives and influencers to the story that has become a symbol of war crimes in Bucha.
The film tells the story of Konstantin Gudauskas, a refugee from Kazakhstan who in the spring of 2022 helped save hundreds of Ukrainians from the cities and towns of Kyiv region occupied by Russian troops.
In addition to film screenings, the tour will include a press conference with producer and screenwriter Oleksandr Shchur, as well as a charity auction in support of Ukraine.
