During the games that unite nations, a new border is drawn. Territories and people are separated. For some you become a traitor, for others – a hero. Some become „defenders“, the others – invalids. The film shows Ukrainian Paralympic athletes who grow beyond their physical limits, while around them the political borders are pushed back and forth.

Still home: Ukrainian films from the occupied territories
With financial support, Netzwerk Filmkultur NRW has put together the Ukrainian film series „Still Home: Ukrainian Films from occupied Territories“. This film series will be shown from December 2022 until the end of 2023 at various screening locations in North Rhine-Westphalia. The filmclub münster will show two films from this series – „PUSHING BOUNDARIES“ and „BUTTERFLY VISION“.
The curators Anna Melikova and Victoria Leshchenko have selected works by filmmakers, whose films bear witness to the changes that have taken place in their country in recent years. The curation focuses on films from the Russian-occupied territories to emphasize that people with their cultural identity are still Ukrainians, despite everything.
