This review examines the Ukraine New Cinema Symposium, held at Yale University from March 27-29, 2026, a hybrid film festival and academic conference co-sponsored by Yale, the Kempf Memorial Fund, Pennsylvania State University, and Razom for Ukraine. Bringing together scholars, filmmakers, and students, the event positioned Ukrainian cinema as central to current debates in film and media studies, particularly around war, post-Soviet transformation, and global circulation.
