Recently released short film ‘Kachalka’ directed by Gar O’Rourke, was filmed in Kyiv a couple of years ago.

Kachalka takes you into the heart of what is widely considered 'the world's most hardcore gym', Kyiv's enormous open-air Kachalka gym. Join the gym's caretaker as he takes us through the enormous scrap-metal site, allowing us a glimpse into the unique community and ingenuity from which it was created.

Since it's online release a few days ago, the film has received a Vimeo Staff Pick and was selected for Short of the Week

See the link below to watch the film on Vimeo and to learn more about how you can help Red Cross Ukraine during this time.

Finally some recent words from Gar on this film;
“Kachalka was made in Kyiv a couple of summers ago, in a moment in time which seems a far cry away from the tragedy which is currently taking place. Although this film shows a very different reality to what we are currently seeing in Kyiv and around the rest of Ukraine, I hope this short film helps to shine a light on the Ukrainian spirit and what makes it truly unique. The intention behind this film was to capture the incredible sense of community and ingenuity that exists at the heart of this Kyiv gym and I think this is something which speaks to the stories we are hearing from Ukraine in this present time.”
