Toronto International Film Festival is coming and we are happy to announce a side-event screening of the newly released Ukrainian movie STOP-ZEMLIA from a debutant Ukrainian director Kateryna Gornostai.

The film reveals a deeply personal story about self-discovery and the patience it requires. 

World Premiere has been taking place at 71 Berlinale - Berlin International Film Festival, 2021. Stop-Zemlia was named the best film by the Generation 14plus jury. 

A film received three awards at the 12th Odesa International Film Festival 2021, and the picture won the Grand Prix – the prize of audience sympathy.

The screening in Toronto is non-commercial and is organized by the Consulate General of Ukraine at the Festival Tower Cinema, September 12, 12 PM.

Please provide your full name, mention ‘STOP-ZEMLIA’ in the subject line. Everyone registered will receive a confirmation with detailed instructions.

ADMISSION IS FREE. VERY LIMITED CAPACITY. ONLY THOSE WHO RECEIVE A CONFIRMATION WILL BE ABLE TO ATTEND.

It’s been a while, yet the festival season is back! See you
