Festival - Social Justice Film Festival 2022 [Hybrid]
I Was Not Born for War
US premiere!
(Vladyslav Robskyi, Ukraine, 2022, 70 min, in Ukrainian with English subtitles)
CW: The film includes archival footage showing military action. It shows how the bodies of dead men are transported. There are several obscene expressions in the Ukrainian language.
Kostya Oborin went through hell in war, yet never lost his fortitude and faith in people. Now, in a rather unusual way, he helps people with disabilities bring back their thirst for life.
Oborin prepares two disabled veterans of the ATO (the War in Donbas) for a parachute jump. Theyve never skydived, but Oborin is both persuasive and reassuring: the jump is a method of rehabilitation, to broaden their minds and provide a strong, clear example of positive risk-taking. Training for it is not easy, but its worth it.

Accessibility
Ticketing, concessions, cinemas, restrooms, and our public edit lab are located on Northwest Film Forum's ground floor, which is wheelchair accessible. We have a limited number of assistive listening devices available for programs hosted in our larger theater, Cinema 1. These devices are maintained by the Technical Director, and can be requested at the ticketing and concessions counter.
The Forum does NOT have assistive devices for the visually impaired, and is not (yet) a scent-free venue. Our commitment to increasing access for our audiences is ongoing, and we welcome all public input on the subject!
If you have additional specific questions about accessibility at our venue, please contact our Patron Services Manager at cris@nwfilmforum.org
