The Hamlet Syndrome (2022)
Five young Ukrainians discuss life following the Maidan Revolution of 2014. Not all fought in the Russian-Ukrainian war, but it, regardless, shattered their life plans. Representing 'Generation Maidan', they face the question of how to cope with experiences of violence, how to go on. A local theatre director produces Hamlet, wherein they can use Shakespeare’s tragic character as a mirror and face their traumas onstage. For them, 'to be or not to be' is not simply text but an existential dilemma with no clear answer.

Must See Movie...
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
