Ukrainian filmmaker Alisa Kovalenko decides to follow a promise to herself to volunteer in the Ukrainian Armed Forces if the Russian invasion in her country turns full scale. Alisa goes to fight on the frontline, leaving behind her 5-year-old son Théo.This film that should never have existed was born out of the effort to preserve, amidst the horrors and dangers of war, the evidence of the unwavering love that the mother has for her child.Through intimate video diaries and poetic letters addressed to a future grown-up Théo, Kovalenko captures the devastating reality of war while reflecting on her choice to serve. Her camera reveals both the chaos of destruction and the profound humanity she finds among her fellow soldiers - their unwavering friendships, mutual support, and tender connections maintained with distant loved ones.Serving both as a mother's testament of love and a war documentary, the film weaves together Kovalenko's personal story with the larger narrative of those who fight to ensure future generations may live in peace.This first-person documentary offers an intense and intimate perspective on the human cost of war and the profound bonds between parent and child that endure even in the darkest circumstances.Through her lens, Alisa Kovalenko honors both the living who serve and those who made the ultimate sacrifice, never to return to their families.We are making this screening as accessible as possible, so you will be able to pay what you can for your tickets.Raised money from this screening will go to Voices of Children - the largest Ukrainian Foundation providing comprehensive psychological support to children living through war. for nearly 10 years, they have been offering holistic support to children and families, working with communities and children’s facilities across the country. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/edinburgh/my-dear-thÉo-by-alisa-kovalenko-edinburgh-screening/100001986975773025 - **Event Categories**: entertainment - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 6.13, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Edinburgh - **state**: SC - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Edinburgh Napier University Merchiston Campus - **lat**: 55.9335305 - **long**: -3.2133845 - **full address**: Edinburgh Napier University Merchiston Campus, 10 Colinton Road, Edinburgh, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: MY DEAR THÉO by Alisa Kovalenko - Edinburgh Screening - **Image URL**: https://dyn-image.allevents.in/generate-image?v=4&title=MY+DEAR+TH%C3%89O++by+Alisa+Kovalenko+-+Edinburgh+Screening&date=Thu%2C+23+Apr%2C+2026+at+06%3A00+pm&bg=1 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is MY DEAR THÉO by Alisa Kovalenko - Edinburgh Screening being held? - **A:** MY DEAR THÉO by Alisa Kovalenko - Edinburgh Screening takes place on Thu, 23 Apr, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Thu, 23 Apr, 2026 at 08:00 pm at Edinburgh Napier University Merchiston Campus, 10 Colinton Road, Edinburgh, United Kingdom. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for MY DEAR THÉO by Alisa Kovalenko - Edinburgh Screening? - **A:** Tickets for MY DEAR THÉO by Alisa Kovalenko - Edinburgh Screening are priced at GBP 6 per person.
