Oleg Sentsov: From the red carpet to fighting in the forests of Kyiv

Presenter

We spoke to the Ukrainian filmmaker Oleg Sentsov, who just weeks ago joined former presidents and serving ministers on the red carpet to celebrate his new film.

Since war began, he’s been fighting in the forests of Kyiv.

Born in Crimea, he shot to worldwide fame in 2014 when the Russians jailed him there after their annexation.

His new movie, ‘Rhino’, was released just a week before war broke out.
