In total, two directors from Ukraine submitted their films: Olha Zhurba (Songs of Slow Burning Earth) and Zhanna Ozirna (Honeymoon). Neither of them was shortlisted.
Both of them told about the first days of Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine. Moreover, Honeymoon received a standing ovation from the audience after its screening at the Venice Film Festival on September 2. Only 8 million hryvnias were allocated for filming and all organizational work, which is 3 times less than "a standard author's film in Ukraine."
