Exclusive: London-based sales firm Canoe Film is launching sales on Ukrainine war film Bucha Unbroken, which will have its world premiere at the upcoming Warsaw Film Festival.
The film is based on the true story of Konstantin Gudauskas, a Lithuanian Jew and resident of Ukraine who used his Kazakh passport to travel to Russian occupied territories and save 203 civilians.

Konstantin must make a difficult decision that will risk his own survival and others.
