CALL Passport Film: Be Safe: Stories from Ukraine

  • Thursday, October 5, 2023
  • 7:00 PM–9:00 PM
  • Calvin Covenant Fine Arts Center
  • $30 Season, $10 Individual Show

A collection of short segments, this presentation features in-depth interviews with a range of Ukrainian citizens including neighbors, children, soldiers, and priests. Told in their own words, they relay the shock of going from regular daily life to living amidst a brutal and relentless Russian campaign designed to terrorize and destroy their way of life.

Outraged by the images coming out of Ukraine, California-based filmmaker Rick Ray traveled to Ukraine to help document first-hand accounts as told by Ukrainian citizens. These individual narratives now form a mosaic of the struggles of ordinary people in Ukraine as they stand against Russian aggression. The hope is that, in sharing these stories with a wide audience, the film will help broaden awareness of the war and maintain support for the people of Ukraine. 

This film is the first of four films for 2023-2024 with the Calvin Academy for Lifelong Learning. All seats are reserved. Choose between season and individual tickets.

Intermission of 15 minutes includes refreshments in the lobby.
