    The Guardian is celebrating Ukrainian cinema with a specially curated selection of documentaries. Presented in collaboration with the Kyiv-based Docudays UA film festival, these award-winning movies offer  insight into the modern history of the country, its culture and its people. 

    Having lived through the Maidan revolution, a pivotal moment in Ukrainian history, art has become a way for the radical cabaret act Dakh Daughters to reflect on the 2014 uprising while facing the harsh realities of today with wisdom and hope, as seen in Roses.Film-Cabaret, directed by Irena Stetsenko.
