Back for its second year is LESFF’s Stay Indie Project, launched in collaboration with BFD Productions, a development lab that supports films through resources, financing, and hands-on production support to help bring bold independent stories to the screen. This year, the program adds a Stay Indie Spotlight screening again with the New York City Premiere of The Ark.
The Ark, drops us into eastern Ukraine at the start of the 2022 invasion, where a family’s quiet rural life is upended overnight. What begins with a single request to care for a soldier’s goats turns into something much bigger, as abandoned animals start arriving from every direction. Cows, dogs, cats, ducks, even and crocodile - all finding refuge at Green Grove Farm.
Directed by Jeremy Chilnick and Viacheslav Rakovskyi
Narrated and Executive Produced by Kyra SedgwickFilmmakers in attendance. This film is screening out of competition.
