When the most recent phase of the Ukrainian War began, Polish director Maciek Hamela took a van and, with the help of other volunteers, began evacuating people fleeing the combat zones. In the Rearview translates this dual quality: he drives people (in successive journeys) through minefields and military checkpoints and films the various journeys from the rear-view mirror. His van is thus a hospital, a shelter, a place of sharing and gathering for a country in a state of siege. A film that understands that cinema can make a difference, even if it's only for five people at a time. 

In the Rearview premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, in the ACID section.
