The Kyiv Independent interviewed film director Kateryna Gornostai, whose latest documentary, "Timestamp," was screened at the 75th Berlin International Film Festival — making her the first Ukrainian director in nearly three decades to compete for the Golden Bear.
"Timestamp" follows students and teachers across different parts of Ukraine, including cities regularly pounded with Russian missiles and drones, showing what everyday school life looks like in the war-torn country.
The film is both intimate and unflinching, offering a glimpse into how kids endure the hardship of growing up under constant bombardment.
