National Museum is a carefully conceived and constructed documentary that focuses on the care and preservation of a wide range of art held at The National Musum of Ukraine, located in Kyiv.
It is is a haunting, cinematic tribute, call it a love song - lovingly made, of a national treasure (the museum) and the efforts to care for and preserve the art and likewise, the rich history that it reflects. There are suggstive, masterful moments of dircting, editing, lighting and camera work that honor the museum's meaning, value and importance to its audience. It is a beautiful testament, celebratory, moving and even sad in relation to the trauma of the war in Ukraine.
