He said this on October 3 during Kyiv Media Week 2024, the publication writes Media detector.
Now Mstislav is editing this tape in America.
We are sleeping in the editing room now, he said.
According to director, it is quite difficult to find financing abroad for a film about war, even when there are contacts and a name.
Investors are afraid to invest at the production stage if the hero or the director may die. It is much easier to find money for the finished product, Mstislav added.
