IDA Screening Series | Room of The Absolute | Q&A Panel


Presented by the IDA Documentary Screening Series and IDA member Company Not All Films, the screening invites members to a special virtual Q&A of Room of the Absolute with Co-Directors Natalie Shirinian, Elizabeth Baudouin, and moderated by Academy Award Winner David Dinerstein (Summer of Soul, Winter on Fire: Ukraine’s Fight For Freedom).

About The Film:
Amid the three years of relentless destruction to her homeland, Ukrainian painter Alla Hurenko (professionally known as ‘Pazza Pennello’) offers a new diaristic perspective on daily life under war, where her canvas becomes a powerful act of resistance, a testament to perseverance, and a quiet rebellion against those determined to erase her world and identity.
