Road Through War<\/i><\/b>\u00a0<\/i>is a road trip along both sides of the frontline in Ukraine from Stanytsia Luhanska to Mariupol. Roads, bridges, and rivers have become the borderlands between the Ukrainian Army and the Rebel States of the Luhansk and Donetsk People’s Republics. The movie takes you on a series of daily journeys with civilians, soldiers, and journalists, people who are connected and divided. The four elements — earth, water, air, and fire — feature prominently as a part of daily life, here serving as emblems of both the remarkable beauty and destructiveness of human nature.<\/div>\n
The film premiered at the International Documentary Film Festival in Buenos Aires (FIDBA) and has been shortlisted for the Imperial War Museum Short Film Festival. More information can be found on the film’s\u00a0Facebook page.<\/a><\/div>\n
Louie Palu<\/b>\u00a0is an award winning documentary photographer and filmmaker whose work has appeared in publications and exhibitions internationally. He is a John Simon Guggenheim Foundation Fellow and Harry Ransom Center Research Fellow at the University of Texas at Austin. He is the recipient of numerous awards including a Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting Grant and a Milton Rogovin Fellowship at the Center Creative Photography.<\/div>\n
