The documentary film “Force of Destiny”, produced by the All-Ukrainian Democratic Forum, was nominated for 2 awards at the Fusion International Film Festivals (Brussels) as part of the USAID-Internews “Medical Journalism” competition: the best short documentary film and a talented filmmaker.\u00a0
The award ceremony took place yesterday, August 21, 2021, in an online format.<\/p>\n


We are very happy that the film was recognized by international experts in two nominations: “Best Short Documentary” and “Talented Filmmaker”.
“Force of Destiny” is a unique story of a girl who, as a result of her parents’ refusal to receive vaccinations, contracted whooping cough and measles. The consequences of these diseases are amazing. At the age of two, Nastya Huzarska developed complications from measles. And by the age of four, the situation reached such a critical level that the only way to save the girl was a heart transplant.<\/p>\n
