- life during wartime
- language and culture
- the future of Ukraine
- mental health
- accessibility and inclusion
These themes reflect current challenges and contribute to building a strong, conscious, and culturally rich society.
The project offers a flexible funding model:
- up to 100% funding for auteur, animation, and children’s projects

This allows support for both independent creators and large-scale production projects.
