Theatre Severn uniting with cinemas for Ukraine fundraising Screening
Theatre Severn are uniting with other cinemas across the UK to screen a charity fundraising preview of OLGA, a new film about a young female Ukrainian gymnast forced to train in exile...
A talented teenage Ukrainian gymnast exiled in Switzerland dreams of Olympic gold in Elie Grappe’s multi-award-winning drama.
Fifteen-year-old Olga is trying to fit in with her new team in her new home. But as she prepares for the European Championship, the Ukrainian people stage a revolution.
Olga is left a powerless, distant bystander as her mother, an investigative journalist, faces danger as she challenges a brutal regime.
Can Olga reconcile her personal goals with the history unfolding in her homeland?
A subtle, tensely handled tale of exile reflecting the pressures on young athletes, the clash between the personal and the political, and young woman’s search for who she is and what she is prepared to sacrifice.
Tickets cost just £10, from each ticket sold, a donation will be made to support Ukraine, with donations going to The Disasters Emergency Committee (and onto their member charities). The previews are a result of a partnership from 606 Distribution and the BFI, with support from the UK Cinema Association.
