'Porcelain War' Shortlisted for 2024 Academy Awards Documentary Feature Category

We are deeply honored to announce that "Porcelain War" has been selected for the 96th Academy Awards Documentary Feature Shortlist. This recognition from the Academy celebrates not just filmmaking excellence, but the indomitable human spirit captured in our documentary.

"Porcelain War" follows Ukrainian artists Slava, Anya, and Andrey, who chose to remain in their homeland amid the ongoing conflict. Through their eyes, we witness an extraordinary testament to the persistence of creativity and beauty even in the darkest circumstances. As fighter jets roar overhead and their world is shaken by conflict, these remarkable artists continue their work, transforming destruction into art and defiance into inspiration.

The film captures a profound truth: while fear can be easily imposed, the human drive to create and find meaning proves remarkably resilient. Through their porcelain artistry, our protagonists demonstrate that beauty can flourish even in the most challenging circumstances, offering a powerful reminder of art's ability to preserve humanity in times of crisis.

This Academy recognition amplifies these artists' voices and their unwavering commitment to their craft. It shines a light not just on their personal stories, but on the broader human capacity to maintain dignity and purpose in the face of adversity.

We are grateful to everyone who has supported this project and helped bring these important stories to the world stage. This shortlist selection encourages us to continue sharing stories that reveal the triumph of the creative spirit over chaos and fear.
