Movie Premiere:
Superpower
Cast & Crew

Matt Roush says...
Actor-activist-filmmaker Sean Penn began filming (with co-director Aaron Kaufman) what was intended as a documentary profile of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in late 2021, and he was in Kyiv when the Russian invasion began in February 2022. Superpower is both an intimate portrait of the unlikely leader, initially known as an actor and comedian, and an on-the-ground report of a country and people under siege.
