About this movie

Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Sergei Loznitsa, MAIDAN chronicles the civil uprising that toppled the government of Ukrainian president Victor Yanukovich and has since developed into an international crisis between Russia and the West. Filmed in stunning long takes, sans commentary, Maidan is a record of a momentous historical event and an extraordinary study of the popular uprising as a social, cultural and philosophical phenomenon.

I liked that it just showed you snippets of what the Maidan protests were like. There is no voice-over narration telling you what to think. If you want an action movie or a thriller look elsewhere. What this shows is a lot of people working together against the antagonism of their own corrupt government in really cold weather and crowded conditions.

Waste of over two hours of my time. Not very informative and just a stationary video camera at various points left on. Not very professional and doesn't really tell the story
