"Searching for Nika" is a film that sheds light on the fate of animals affected by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Produced by FISHCORB Films and the creative team of Stanislav Karpalov, Yan Fisher, and Taras Stadnikov, the film follows the story of a dog named Nika, lost in the chaos of war.
Determined to find her, Nika's owner, Stas, sets out into a war-torn country and becomes involved with volunteers risking everything to save abandoned animals. His personal quest transforms into a humanitarian mission as he helps save a blind lion, evacuate animals amid bombings, and captures stories of bravery and compassion along the way. By the end of his journey, Stas discovers the fate of his beloved Nika.
UA Resistance was honored to financially support the production of this film. We are also very proud that "Searching for Nika" was chosen to participate in the DOC NYC film festival.
