My super power is being Ukrainian
Jan 24, 2024
It is not just 20 days; it is an eternity for those who were there. These days seemed to last forever. I know it.
“20 day in Mariupol”, a Ukrainian documentary film directed by Mstyslav Chernov about ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐ข๐๐ ๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐ข๐ฎ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฅ ๐๐ฒ ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐๐ง ๐ข๐ง๐ฏ๐๐๐๐ซ๐ฌ is nominated for an Oscar in the category “Best Documentary”.
Mariupol had a population of approximately 446,000 people. Where are they now?

๐ There are thousands of unknown names to us, those with an unknown fate too.
According to UN estimates, 90% of the city’s apartment buildings and 60% of single-family homes were damaged.
Journalists are spreading the truth
The significance of the role played by war correspondents is indescribable. The journalists from the Associated Press comprised the final team of international reporters on the scene, covering the initial 20 days of the siege that left the city in ruins.
๐ซ ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐ is erasing the truth ๐ซ
Meanwhile, ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐ is demolishing those ruined buildings and constructing new ones “just to make good pictures,”according to Chernov. This action erases potential evidence that could assist in assessing the extent of the war crimes committed by ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐. “There is less and less evidence left with every every single day that passes by.”
๐๐ผ Please watch it on my behalf.
I cannot watch it because it not only breaks my heart but also shatters me as a human being.

Comment from Anna R. :-
My best friend and her mother spent 43 days in the cellar of their apartment complex watching people getting mrdered, eating scraps, drinking dirty snow water..my great aunt watched her apartment getting burnt to the ground and was then put on a bus and driven out of the city to ruzia..upon arrival, she was told she’d be going to a shelter. While trying to make some sense of what happened, she attempted to restore her documents that she lost in the fire and every ruzian she ever asked for help told her ” GO BACK TO WHERE YOU CAME FROM, BTCH” mind you, she comes from a Russian, loving household, born and raised in Mariupol during the soviets times, so she knows both cultures very well and has many Russian friends.. She’s 78 years old and had just had an open heart surgery, right before the war began; she needed to go see a doctor to get meds for her heart ,but they treated her like shit. Go back to where??? RUINS?? THE CITY YOUR PEOPLE DESTROYED?? ruzians are cruelโฆshe couldn’t even buy food for herself and was shoved from corner to corner ,seeking support. She can’t go back to Mariupol because she has no documents!!! Tell me how severely deranged these people are..because that’s absurd!!!!
