Curiosità

Pulse is a Ukrainian feature-length sports drama directed by Sergii Chebotarenko, based on the true story of Ukrainian athlete and Paralympic champion Oksana Boturchuk. A gold medallist at the 2008 Paralympic Games, Boturchuk is also a five-time silver and bronze medallist across the 2008, 2012, and 2016 Summer Paralympics. The film portrays her journey as a track and field athlete, focusing on her personal and professional challenges following a traumatic accident that left her visually impaired, and her subsequent path to international athletic success.

Production

Filming for Pulse began in Kyiv in March 2019. The second production block took place in July, and the final stage of shooting was completed in September of the same year. Although the narrative is primarily set in Ukraine, the pivotal turning point for the protagonist—Oksana—takes place at the Paralympic Games in Beijing.

Oksana Boturchuk herself played an active role in the development of the project. She served as a consultant to screenwriters Yaroslav Voitsekhek and Maksym Chernysh during the scriptwriting process, ensuring narrative authenticity and factual accuracy.

Nataliia Babenko, who portrays Oksana Boturchuk in the film, undertook specialised preparation during the production process. She consulted with professional running coaches and trained regularly in the gym to develop the appropriate physical condition required for the role.
