THE EARTH IS BLUE AS AN ORANGE

Iryna Tsilyk (born 1982 in Kiev) is a Ukrainian filmmaker and writer. Her debut feature-length documentary "The Earth Is Blue as an Orange" encapsulates the extremes of war, both its explosive trauma and its banal peripheral existence in everyday life. With miraculous insight, the film observes a family coping with war using the camera, Anna and her children working in tandem to create meaning from a senseless conflict.
