A film crew has been following Mustafa Nayyem, Svitlana Zalishchuk, and Serhiy Leshchenko since 2013, documenting their fight for democracy in Ukraine. Over the years captured on film, they underwent a major shift in their roles, moving from activism into high-level politics.

And what is European legislation doing to protect children in the digital environment? We’ll discuss all this with our guests!

You are warmly invited to a screening of the film Julie Keeps Quiet (2024), followed by a discussion with our guest speakers.

After the screening, we will reflect with our guests on what lies behind the curtain of professional sports. The evening will conclude with light refreshments and space for informal discussion.

These questions will be at the heart of the discussion, and we warmly invite you to join us on Thursday, September 18 at 6:00 PM.
