New Film on Odessa: Shooting to Begin in 2023

Last year, the announcement was made regarding the filming of the biographical drama «Odessa Life». This artistic film tells the story of a Ukrainian director who lived and worked in Odessa from 1926 to 1929.

The next phase of the shooting process is set to take place in April-May this year, as reported by the Odessa Film Studio.

Filming will occur on the streets of Odessa, at the Odessa Film Studio, and also in Kyiv.

«This film is a tribute to Odessa in 1926, a center of literature, cinema, and art; a tribute to the city that recovered from the First World and Civil Wars; Odessa, thriving under the NEP laws, showcasing resilience and vitality. Odessa, a city enchanted by cinema, poetry, jazz, and boxing…», – stated on the Odessa Film Studio's official page.

The director of the Odessa Film Studio, Andriy Osipov, noted that the studio finished the previous year with a profit and remains a stable enterprise. Therefore, they are not only continuing to shoot a unique historical film about Dovzhenko but are also working on new projects.
