The award-winning Ukrainian director Sergei Loznitsa (BLOKADA (1999), IN THE FOG (2007), MY JOY (2010)) went out onto the square in February 2014 with his camera and observed the final weeks of the demonstrations. The result is a fantastic portrait about what happened on the Maidan, but also about the general dynamics of such revolutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What was incredible about the events on the Maidan were the images: Waving flags on burning barricades, single unarmed people who stood up against an anonymous superior mass of soldiers. Pictures that were reminiscent of paintings of the French Revolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"Standard para-style-override-10 wp-block-paragraph\">But Sergei Loznitsa was looking for something else. He observed the developments on the Maidan very precisely. What he could hear and see, such as loudspeaker announcements, soup kitchens for the demonstrators, masses singing the Ukrainian national anthem, and even a policeman being hit and falling from a roof. The revolutionary images are put into such context that they are devoid of pathos. Loznitsa creates a new, fascinating form of writing history: The film is about processes, dynamics and the attempt to observe historical developments without interpreting them ideologically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Maidan Official Trailer 1 (2014) - Documentary HD\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/JrZAnlIgZpg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SERGEI LOZNITSA<\/strong><br>Sergei Loznitsa was born in 1964.
