Jazz Tangcay Artisans Editor When the Russian invasion of Ukraine began in Feb. 2022, Associated Press journalist Mstyslav Chernov grabbed his camera and filmed as the city of Mariupol came under heavy artillery bombarding. The reporter intended not to make a film but to capture everything he witnessed.
“It was a necessity,” Chernov says as he watched the city be reduced to ruins. Chernov ended up recording over 30 hours of footage which showed a maternity hospital being bombed, mass graves and people looting shops for food. That footage became the Oscar shortlisted documentary and international feature, “20 Days in Mariupol,” showing a first-hand look at the atrocities.
Both Russian and Ukrainian TV reported the bombing, but “the commentary was very different,” Chernov says. “It was a significant turning point editorially and historically. I realized everything from that moment needed to be recorded.” Chernov was one of the last international journalists to leave the Ukrainian city.
He escaped with the footage, which compared to most docs that use hundreds of hours, was “not that much.” He didn’t want it to be swept under the rug and to be a part of the news cycle that would disappear after a few days. Producer and editor Michelle Mizner stepped in, spearheading conversations about turning this footage into a film. Mizner credits Chernov with the idea to show what was being filmed on the ground as a firsthand account and how that footage was used in the news.

Anyone with more than a passing interest in the weird and wonderful will have seen, if not heard of, the Patterson-Gimlin footage, the cryptoozological equivalent of the Zapruder film. Shot in 1967 in the forests of Northern Carolina, it purports to show a large, ape-like creature with an elongated forehead striding purposefully into the trees. Unlike an ape, the creature walks upright, and, unlike the furtive behavior of any other forest creature, it has the casual air of the average human being popping over to the 7-11 to pick up a gallon of milk. Most people who see the footage wonder what the hell this damn thing is, but the sibling directors of Sasquatch Sunset have a couple more questions that they’d like answered. Like, where is it going? And what does it do all day?
