THE EUKRAINIAN
synopsis
Olha Stefanishyna is a woman with high ideals and the courage to fight for them – even when they are literally under attack. Her pro-European will was awakened during the Maidan protests, and when nine years later – now as Deputy Prime Minister with the responsibility for Ukraine’s campaign for EU membership – she receives the call that Russia has invaded the country in 2022, she sends her children to safety and boards a train to help President Zelenskyj lead the country through war – and into the EU and NATO.
