Signs of War

UA/AT 2022, 85 min, Juri Rechinsky & Pierre Crom

Can we see a war coming? 
It starts with fireworks lightning the sky. 
With a crowd payed to be cheerful.
Barricades and armed men. 
With first victims and funerals. 
It evolves with a shot, lightning the sky.
On a civilian plane.
298 people on board, 80 kids, no survivors.
With war criminals playing Mad Max
in a new year's show for kids.
With the biggest tank battle in Europe since WWII. 
Fireworks light up the sky of Kyiv
with bombs and invading russian soldiers.
With millions of citizend trying to flee,
Thousands of journalists are trying to get in. 
One of them saw it all coming.
