"Dissident", interview with Andrii Alf'erov, director and Viktoria Romashko, actress

Dissident's director Andrii Alf'erov explains the reason for making a film that tells a story based on the politically complex history of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army, and how he and the producer decided to navigate the difficult balance between historical accuracy and creative storytelling. Viktoria Romashko explains how she shaped the character she plays in the film, striking a complex balance between her own convictions and the character's personality. "Dissident" creates a strong link between the events that happened in the 70's and 80's in Ukraine and its ongoing struggle for identity and independence.
