Photo Impression | Eddy's oorlog (war)

In this documentary, filmmaker Joost van der Valk follows war photographer Eddy van Wessel (four-time Silver Camera winner) as he covers the war in Ukraine, mostly on the front lines and in the heat of battle. This provides a unique insight into his working methods, his vision and his ability to observe and record war.
After the screening there was a live Q&A with Joost.
 
Some feedback from the audience
"It is an eye-opening experience for me to see the front lines of war. It is shocking. It is also a nice Q&A session with the director. I really learn some insights from him in terms of his passion for his work."
 
"I "liked" the movie, not that I liked the horrible things I saw about the war in Ukraine. But in the movie the truth is shown without the censorship that the media gives you on this subject. We saw what it did to the people who still live there and what a horrible mind game they play with the civilians. We saw the side of the civilians, the army and the media and what role they play in this war."
