Ukrainian Spring Film Marathon - Malevych

The evening kicks off with an introductory presentation, followed by the screening, and wraps up with a post-film discussion and Q&A.

About "Malevych"

What is hidden behind the "Black Square," which was painted by the obsessive artist Kazymyr Malevych? For his rivals - "fraud", for the Soviet regime - secret code, for one woman - love letter. However for Ukrainians - prophecy.

A whirlwind of passion, defiance, and genius unfolds in the life of Kazymyr Malevych, the world-renowned Ukrainian artist who dares to challenge the Soviet regime for the right to create “free” art.

“Malevych” is not a conventional historical biopic, but a bold, symbolic portrait of Ukraine, seen through the prism of a man whose art refused to bow to power.

It's a community gathering with expert introductions, post-film discussions, and the kind of conversations that stay with you long after the credits roll.

Hosted at the C Ukraine Cultural Showcase in downtown San Francisco, this Cinema Club project creates a space where film becomes dialogue.

With the support of the Consulate General of Ukraine in San Francisco, we are building a regular cultural forum that strengthens Ukrainian-American ties through art, discussion, and shared experience.
