In the Rearview is a documentary directed by Maciek Hamela.
Synopsis: A Polish van travels the roads of Ukraine. On board, Maciek Hamela evacuates people fleeing their country since the Russian invasion. The vehicle becomes an ephemeral refuge, a zone of trust and confidences for people who are leaving everything behind and have only one goal left: to find a chance at life for themselves and their children.
