Eddy's Oorlog plot

Eddy van Wessel travels along the Ukrainian front lines for four seasons. Now that he is in the twilight of his successful career as the Netherlands' most awarded war photographer, he wants to take the ultimate photo once again, the image that summarizes the entire conflict and that makes all the struggles, traumas and setbacks he has had to endure worthwhile. . Filmmaker Joost van der Valk followed him in his wake during this last period and thus documents how Van Wessel experiences and records the war through encounters and interactions with Ukrainians. On the other side of the lens, however, you are not immune to all the suffering of war. How do you function as a photographer in the surreal reality of war?

Dutch photographer Eddy van Wessel lives in Sweden and has found a place there that is an antidote to the terrible scenes he captures. Joost van der Valk risked his life by following Van Wessel during an expedition to the Ukrainian front, thus showing how decisive and inventive journalists must be to capture as much of the truth as possible in an environment where the warring parties largely determine where you can and cannot go. A documentary not to be missed, especially for people with journalistic ambition or interest, even though there are quite a few shocking images.
