Insiders Project on and off screen: before wide digital release the audience will see the first season of the project on a big screen

Chornobyl Zone, abandoned bomb shelters, dizzying ascents and the deepest dungeons  - Insiders Project team explored all those dangerous and mysterious places and made a cycle of documentaries about them with FILM.UA.

Very soon the project will be available for a wide audience: starting from February 16, pre-orders in Megogo online cinema will begin.

Before the wide digital release, the authors provided the audience with an opportunity to see all ten episodes of the cycle on a big screen. Each Saturday, from February 17 till March 17 in Ukraina cinema, Insiders Project authors will present the films, answer the audience’s questions and show some exclusive backstage materials. The screenings start at 8 PM. You can buy the tickets here.

Insiders Project has a big and a very loyal audience in Ukraine, which is confirmed by sold-outs of all theatrical screenings in Kyiv, Kharkiv, and Odesa. The unique project also spurred lively interest in the world. Just a reminder: Looking Glass International, a leading distributor of an active lifestyle and sports content, acquired the rights to these films’ distribution in a range of countries.  

The audience in France and Poland has already seen Insiders Project films. In the nearest time, it will be joined by viewers from Hungary, Romania, China as well as Amazon Prime subscribers in the US. Global Road Entertainment (aka IM Global) has become involved in developing a Ukrainian-American version which will allow expanding not only the audience but also the geography of Insiders Project explorations.

About the project:

Each episode of Insiders Project is a short documentary about an extreme journey to dangerous and mysterious places. Tunnels and bomb shelters, underground rivers, the highest bridges and roofs, Chornobyl zone and ghost town Prypyat – all these hard-to-reach locations above, under and on the ground built in different historical epochs became objects of Insiders team exploration.  

Together with the show host Dmitry Gromov you will go beyond the bounds, see the reverse side of the city and feel the fragility of human life in comparison with a thousand-ton power of ruthless megapolis. These films has no actors and staged scenes, stuntmen or stand-ins — Insiders Project team finds the objects themselves, explores them on their own and films everything on camera. You won’t see anything like it in the cinema!

We are looking forward to seeing you at the screenings in Ukraina cinema from February 17 until March 17, every Saturday at 8 PM.
