A Fantastic, Human Scale View of History
The Good: It’s easy, as a person fascinated by geopolitics and political science, to sometimes “dehumanize” the people involved. We talk about the powerful people and speculate about the power dynamics at play; what the “Russians” are planning and what the fate of “Ukraine” will be. Often, without thinking about the human beings whose lives, welfare, hopes, and aspirations are at stake. I think it’s important for anyone interested in world politics to go beyond the strategy, the ideologies and macro trends to watch documentaries that illustrate the humanity of these sweeping historical moments. Winter on Fire does this incredibly well.

The footage captured here is AMAZING. Not only because of how raw it is, but how visually stunning these scenes are. Yes, it’s a little weird to say this, but the contrast between the snow covered rooftops of Kiev, with the piles of burning tires, the lines of policemen and protestors, the blood, the chaos…it’s honestly quite the sight to see. I also loved how this film didn’t romanticize or shy away from the trauma, the violence, the desperation, and resolve required to overthrow a government. It really humanizes these events for audiences who may tend to view these things as abstract and distant.

Yet, in the bloody street battles and sieging captured in this film, there are countless beautiful moments of humanity. There’s a tendency to talk about Ukraine as a doomed country; how it’s the second poorest country in Europe, destined to be swallowed by Russia, whose young people are either fleeing or not having enough children to maintain the country into the future. But it’s hard to think this way after watching this film, honestly.

The documentarian also does a fantastic job introducing us to people whom would eventually be seen as heroes in the “new Ukraine.” Yet, it doesn’t valourize anyone to the point where we lose sight of the broader social movement that Maidan really was.

The Bad: The movie is a tad bit on the long side, which I can see being an issue for some. After several repeating scenes of street battles, they do sometimes blend together. I also felt the film missed a bit on the context; while I was aware of a lot of Ukrainian history up until 2014, and I can see why someone unfamiliar with this history may be a bit confused. I see it primarily as an artistic choice and completely understand why they would prefer focusing on the Maidan, but you kind of need to know a bit about the Ukrainian-Russian relationship to fully get the picture.

The Ugly: Winter on Fire is essential for anyone who is fascinated by this region of the world. The event post-Revolution are what the international media focus on; the proxy war between the EU and Russia, the Donbass War and annexation of Crimea. Yet, almost forgotten is the 93 day struggle that led to the sea change in European geopolitics seven years ago. It is one of the most compelling, accessible, and enthralling documentaries I’ve seen in quite a while, and perhaps, even more important today than in 2015.

Bloody documentary footage of the Fight to Overthrow Dictator in Ukraine
This documentary is raw and bloody, and it describes the internal struggle of the Ukrainian people to overthrow a dictator who betrayed them. Ukraine wanted to become part of the European Union and to move away from Putin’s Russia in late 2013.

The pro-Russian leader of the Ukraine Victor Yanukovich stunned the people of his country by refusing to sign an agreement to join the EU and, instead, endorsed a plan to become part of Putin’s Russian alliance. The Ukrainian people took to the streets of the capital city. What followed was a bloodbath as armed troops murdered unarmed civilians. The film shows an incredible degree of courage and determination to fight back against the government troops even when much blood was running in the streets.

As the people took to the streets in greater numbers, Yanukovych assumed greater dictatorial power through the Parliament and attempted to rule an unwilling public through force. The film covers a period of about 90 days from the beginning of the uprising to the resignation of Yanukovych, who fled to Russia for protection from his people. The government escalated the violence throughout the uprising, but the Ukrainians were relentless in pursuit of a free country and their desire to become part of the European Union.

I wonder why we didn’t get much news about this in our media, although I am grateful that we got the full story on the Kardashians while this was happening. Is Lamar out of rehab yet?
