Ukrainians would like to watch comedies - but for now their culture is defined by war
Published: 11/8/2025

In Ukraine, the cultural landscape is dominated by war-related films, plays, and exhibitions. The documentary "2000 metres to Andriivka" and rock opera "Patriots" highlight the country's struggle for independence amidst ongoing conflict. While some viewers find solace in comedies, many appreciate the artistic representations of war as a way to honor fallen soldiers and rally support for Ukraine. These cultural productions, like "Patriots," serve a dual purpose of entertainment and spreading awareness about the country's ongoing battle for freedom.
