With Pierre Feuille Pistolet (In The Rearview), director Maciek Hamela takes moviegoers deep into the desperate flight of Ukrainian refugees from the Russian invasion. Presented at the Cannes Film Festival 2023 in the ACID Selection, this 85-minute documentary, a Franco-Polish co-production, tells the story of these people in exile aboard a Polish van. Scheduled for theatrical release on November 8, 2023.
In Pierre Feuille Pistolet, the vehicle becomes more than just a means of transport; it becomes a symbol of refuge and hope. Along the roads of Ukraine, the van's occupants share their stories, aspirations and fears, all united by the same desire: to escape the terror of war.
Maciek Hamela, whose name is associated with touching and delicate productions, promises with this film an authentic and poignant insight into the drama of Ukrainian refugees. The special feature of this documentary is its casting: the protagonists are real exiles, which lends an exceptional dimension of authenticity to the work.
The importance of the Polish van is not insignificant. It embodies the solidarity between nations in the face of adversity, underlining the need to provide support and assistance to those affected by hostilities.
The recently unveiled trailer has aroused great curiosity and generated high expectations. While we haven't yet had the chance to view the documentary, first impressions from viewers and experts suggest that Pierre Feuille Pistolet could make a lasting impression, offering a fresh look at the tragic situation of these men and women displaced by conflict.
In conclusion, Pierre Feuille Pistolet stands as a poignant witness to the ravages of war on the human soul, but also to the resilience and hope that persist even in the darkest of circumstances.
