100 Hours in Kyiv, Ukraine: A Food Tour Before the War

Editor's Take

Recorded before the war, this hundred-hour immersion in Kyiv captures a city and cuisine at a moment that would soon change. It ranges from Soviet-era canteens to craft beer and Ukrainian fine dining, using food to sketch a warm portrait of an underrated capital. The retrospective framing lends ordinary scenes a quiet weight the filmmakers could not have fully intended. It stands now as much as record as travelogue.
