Rebel Queers: Ukraine's Queer Resistance
Before the Russian full-scale invasion to Ukraine in 2022, subversive collective Rebel Queers would defy the hetero normative and patriarchal world that so suffocated them by scrawling on the walls of Kyiv: 'Queer Sex,' 'Make Queer Punk Again,' and 'Be Queer, Do Crime, Hail Satan,' among others. The driving force behind Rebel Queers is Angelika Ustymenko, a non-binary and neurodivergent artist and filmmaker. When their country and community came under attack, they resolved to document the experiences of queer Ukrainians during wartime. On the first anniversary of the full-scale invasion, Angelika began a new phase of their documentary project, collaborating with Huck Docs to collect queer soldiers' reflections after a year of war and broadening the focus to include other forms of queer resistance.

Reviews
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Blistering performances.
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
