Creating relevant films collectively was the impetus for young filmmakers from Kiev to found the Tabor production lab more than ten years ago. For Yelizaveta Smith, Alina Gorlova and Simon Mosgovyi, creating images together to counter the inescapable reality of chaos and destruction in the sudden state of war became an existential strategy. MILITANTROPOS explores the double nature that military violence turns people into, allowing a profound collective portrait and a narrative to emerge in the turmoil of loss and solidarity, which brings together meaning where solid ground seems to shatter.
