Review of Donbass

Donbass (2018)
8/10
Good and Evil
27 April 2023
For years I've been thinking about the question, is ignorance the problem of all humanity? Since everywhere the human species is, someone is always imposing their own truths and beliefs on the others, and with a resulting conflict, both sides lose. In this conflict of the just and the unjust, humanity is losing. Why don't we try to understand a different thought instead of directly responding to it and we are filled with hatred? Why do we directly believe in any ideology or even a religion and rent our brains? I've spent years trying to understand the world we live in and the human species by asking similar questions like these.

I watched the director Sergei Loznitsa's Maidan first and finally I had the opportunity to watch Donbass, which I postponed for a long time. The director, the cinematographer and the entire cast did a great job. The director blended the situation in Ukraine with black comedy. As long as there are people who choose not to use our thinking ability, which is our only difference from animals, and choose to be animals, pain will always remain. I hope that Ukraine and all communities in the same plight will find peace.
