On Thursday 15th May Cambridge for Europe will be screening Flags in the Wind, a short film by the European Movement UK which explores the humanitarian impact of the Ukraine-Russia war on the people of Ukraine.
The screening will start at 6 PM, and will be held in the Gibson Hall, Downing Place United Reformed Church, Cambridge CB2 3EL.
The film screening will be followed by a discussion with Professor Rory Finnin of Cambridge Ukrainian Studies on the impact of the war in Ukraine.
The documentary parallels the United Kingdom’s struggles in the Second World War with the ongoing experiences of the Ukrainian people, questioning whether the lessons of history have been heeded.
With contributions from Ukrainian citizens, veterans, senior politicians, and rehabilitation centre clinicians, Flags in the Wind delivers a sober message at a time when Europe celebrates 80 years since Victory in Europe Day.
Tickets are available online or on the door.
Proceeds will be donated to Ukrainian paramedics Hospitallers.
The venue is accessible.
