Behind the War (2026)

They left one war behind—only to walk into another. *Behind the War* shadows former Colombian soldiers as they trade their pasts for the frontlines of Ukraine, stepping into the Armed Forces after Russia’s full-scale assault. Through rare, boots-on-the-ground access, the film tracks their evolution from outsiders to embedded fighters in one of today’s most tangled conflicts. At the heart of the story is the birth of *Guajiro*, a Spanish-speaking unit that grows into the backbone of the Khartiia Brigade’s international battalion. More than a battle chronicle, it’s an unflinching look at what drives a person to cross the globe and risk everything in a war that isn’t theirs—until it becomes theirs.
