Prologue

On February 24th, 2022 Russian forces invaded the sovereign state of Ukraine.
The invasion of Ukraine is an unprecedented event in both European and world history and demands a corresponding response. The world's AV industry stands together with our Ukrainian colleagues. We hold a firm belief that our combined efforts can enable the cultural heritage of Ukraine to continue. Together we will create content that can cross borders. Together we will forge new cultural and economic ties to sustain both Ukrainian and global AV industries. Together we will reach new audiences worldwide.
In this regard, content has a matchless power.

Due to the war, the Ukrainian AV industry, known for its creativity and ambition, and on track to become a major content producer on the world stage, lost its financing overnight.
What our Ukrainian colleagues do matters: content speaks to identity and self-expression, yet inspires solace and solidarity, as has been witnessed in the global response inspired by Ukraine among the world's leaders and people alike.
Ukrainian AV industry is the lifeline for thousands of Ukrainian filmmakers. These jobs must be preserved for the sake of these people and the families who rely on them.
Ukrainian AV industry must persevere for the Ukrainian culture to continue. During the horrors of the war, this matters more than ever.
Alive and thriving Ukrainian AV industry will take the load off European economies, will allow the Ukrainian people to go back and rebuild and will foster deeper cultural integration across Europe and beyond.
