Ukrainian Cinema: Atlantis

A prize-winner at the Venice Film Festival and Ukraine’s official selection for the 2021 Academy Awards, Atlantis is a gorgeous and visionary sci-fi drama.

Eastern Ukraine, 2025. A desert unsuitable for human habitation. Water is a dear commodity brought by trucks. A Wall is being build-up on the border. Sergiy, a former soldier, is having trouble adapting to his new reality. He meets Katya while on the Black Tulip mission dedicated to exhuming the past. Together, they try to return to some sort of normal life in which they are also allowed to fall in love again. (Grasshopper Film)

Tickets for regular film presentations are $12, with Film Center members paying only $6 per ticket. Students with valid school ID pay $7, and SAIC students, staff, or faculty pay $5 for regular film presentations. 

Ten percent of the ticket sales for all films in this series will be donated to Voices of Children, a Ukrainian-based non profit which provides art therapy for children–and is currently providing emergency psychological aid and assistance in the evacuation process to Ukrainian children and families affected by full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine.
