Watch Atlantis

Ukraine's official submission for the 93rd Academy Awards and a prize-winner at the Venice Film Festival, Valentyn Vasyanovich's eerily prescient ATLANTIS is a gorgeous and haunting sci-fi drama that envisions a Russian invasion of Ukraine, and its aftermath. In 2025, Eastern Ukraine is a desert unsuitable for human habitation, water a dear commodity brought by trucks. A wall is being built on the border. Sergiy, a former soldier having trouble adapting to his new reality, meets Katya while she's on a humanitarian 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. "Fearfully powerful. Riveting. Literally and figuratively visionary."
