Following the 3-year anniversary of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Jamestown Ukraine Relief Project has partnered with the Friends of the Jamestown Library to host the world premiere screening of the remarkable 90-minute documentary Beyond Bucha: Finding the Spirit in Ukraine, from the Churches to the Front.
The screening will be held on Sunday, Mar. 2, 1:00 PM at the Jamestown Philomenian Library (26 North Main Rd., Jamestown.)
Filmmaker Steve Richards will be present to introduce the film and the screening will be followed by a Zoom conversation with some of those in Ukraine who appear in the film. Among these is Sasha Pinchuk, who made many friends in Jamestown as a Melrose School student during the 2022-23 school year.
(This film is the third in the Trek to Bucha series – the second film, Back to Bucha, was shown last year at the Jamestown Art Center and the Newport Public Library.) The screening is free and open to the public. Donations are encouraged. Reservations suggested: Friends of the JPL Event | Jamestown Philomenian Library
