What do you know about Mariupol? Mariupol is a port, a resort, home to a large number of Pontic Greeks and a commercial center. It is an industrial giant with a history dating back to the 16th century, when it was founded by the Cossacks. Mariupol is a city that was exposed to war in 2014 and has since become a symbol of the Ukrainian-controlled Donetsk region. A besieged, heroic city that struggled to resist and survive during the Russian invasion in 2022 and is now completely taken by Russian troops.

“Mariupol, I love you” is a collection of short films shot by residents of the city of Mariupol in 2017-2021. The short films tell about everyday life, dreams and relationships, and how they were affected by the first phase of the war.
