Ukraine must win.

Great insight of the full on war that Russia launched on Ukraine, trying to etnically cleanse Ukraine from their native lands. This was has been going on from 2014 and even before and all of the negative reviews have been made by Russian propagandists. Any negative review is complaining about that the Ruzzians could make one themselves, but this tv-show shows a great insight in how and why Ukrainians are winning this war.It gives an insight on who the soldiers are and why they are fighting off the Ruzzians to libirate their country from the evil that is occupiing their lands and are torturing and killing their sevillians.

Everything I hoped to see in a modern warfare documentary

Raw footage. Real danger. Factual information.This documentary helped me to realize the power of drive and morale.Although war is not something we should glorify and normalize, it is still fascinating to see every-day intelligent people with the most benign lives imaginable weaponizing their capabilities out of self-defense.This doc shows the logistics of Russia's invasion, clearly conveys critical territory, and reveals in-depth offensive and counter-offensive tactics.Just when I thought this documentary couldn't get any more badass it somehow manages to. Godspeed to all the nations supporting Ukraine.

Anecdotal and without perspective

I guess it's hard to make a good documentary, and geopolitics are complicated.The footage is from Jun22, which is early on in the war.It was interesting to see the prevalence of drone usage in combat, but there was zero perspective. I'm not even sure we can call this propaganda, in the sense that the same documentary could have been made following russians.The one interesting passage for me was a female ex school teacher now working in intelligence who subsequently joined the military outright: "I didn't think that I could be so cruel, that i'd be glad about someone's death, but for us they're not human. And when we hear that 20 have been killed, we say "damn, not enough"".I'm not going to blame her, i'm safe in another country. But in a way this glorifies war, and war without perspective but with drones and 20min of mortar footage looks a lot like a video game.This documentary brings nothing valuable to make sense of this war.
