"Animals in War" (2025) is a unique Ukrainian anthology film based on true stories of animals affected by the war in Ukraine. The main characters of its seven novellas are animals that found themselves in the midst of war—among them a white rabbit, a wolf, and a cow. This project sheds light on the humanitarian and ecological catastrophe caused by war, portraying it through the perspective of animals who are powerless against its consequences. The film was created in collaboration with both Ukrainian and international artists, including Hollywood actor, director, and producer Sean Penn, who, for the first time in the history of Ukrainian cinema, became part of a domestic film.
