A Ukrainian platoon's mission: traverse a heavily fortified mile of forest to liberate a strategic village from Russian forces. A journalist accompanies them, witnessing the ravages of war and the growing uncertainty about its conclusion.

Critics Consensus

Captured with bracing frankness by director Mtsyslav Chernov, 2000 Meters to Andriivka is a poignant missive from the front lines.

Extraordinary, extremely powerful, and devastating in many ways.

There's never been as immersive a war documentary as 2000 Meters in Andriivka, cleaving as it does to the swings between peril and blessed boredom, mixing overhead shots and underground views like a dystopian saga.

Financial Times

As with 20 Days in Mariupol, Chernov delivers stark, unfrilled reportage: a sad and sustained close-up of reality.

Rated: 5/5

Chernov leaves us time here to draw conclusions about what is not being said, not being done, and where the battle for the dignity and independence comes from.

Technically, this is a magnificent achievement of documentary filmmaking. But politically, it’s a troubling work that never seeks to address the reasons for that trouble.
