To the Victory is a 2025 Ukrainian docudrama film written and directed by Valentyn Vasyanovych and co-produced by Volodymyr Yatsenko. The film tells the story of how war affects families and friendships. It takes place in Ukraine's post-war future. Roman, a film director who’s having a tough time, wants to start making movies again. He lives in Kyiv with his teenage son, while his wife and young daughter are in Vienna, to which they escaped when Russia invaded Ukraine.

Production

Around October 2022, after setting aside several initial concepts, Valentyn Vasyanovych chose to write a screenplay inspired by his own experiences and the challenges of living through wartime. He developed the project with support from a Netflix-funded development grant. He was also one of the 48 Ukrainian filmmakers selected by the Ukrainian Film Academy to receive this grant, each valued at US$15,000.

Lithuanian producers, M-Films decided to support the film in a concerted effort to help Ukrainian filmmakers, on a call given by Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in his live address to the audience during the opening of the 2023 Cannes Film Festival under the European Solidarity Fund for Ukrainian Films and Lithuanian Film Fund. In 2024 Eurimages funded the project with €70,000 and European co-productions.

The film was made by a tiny team of just six or seven people — all close friends of the director, Valentyn Vasyanovych. They helped each other by acting in the film and also working behind the camera. Vasyanovych called the project “supportive” and said it gave them a “huge psychological release,” helping them escape the stress of war for a little while. In an interview ahead of the film’s Toronto premiere to the Variety, Vasyanovych said:

“It really helped to distract [us] from other thoughts,” he explained.

“It was a kind of collective psychotherapy.”
