Dovzhenko Centre was launched in 1994 based on the largest Soviet Ukrainian film printing factory (founded in 1948), and today it is one of the most dynamic cultural institutions in Ukraine that can boast a wide international representation in the film industry. Dovzhenko Centre acts as an umbrella for a modern climate-controlled film vault, the only film printing laboratory in Ukraine, a Cinema Museum, a non-film archive, a multimedia library and a publishing department. It stores, promotes, researches and distributes the national film legacy in Ukraine and abroad. In 2015 the industrial buildings of the centre were refurbished and turned into a public space. For that purpose, an art cluster was created, and now it unites some public initiatives in the field of modern art, namely theatre, music, and book publishing. Thus, Dovzhenko Centre has become a popular platform for hosting concerts and performances. The centre is the only member of the International Federation of Film Archives in Ukraine, and in its activities, it aims at applying best practices of such western film institutions as the British Film Institution, EYE Film Institute in Amsterdam, Cinémathèque Française, Filmoteca de Catalunya, etc.

More information:
Studio KAPI is a Ukrainian animation studio founded by producer Michael Margulis and children's writer Natalia Guzeeva in 2015. Our focus is on the production of children's content, the consistent development of animation in Ukraine as an industry, and a worthy presentation of our country in the international arena. Also, we have a lot of ideas, labor, and inspiration, so sometimes we take on projects for young adults, social advertising, video-explanatory, etc. Developing animation, we create our own artistic language, images, approaches, techniques, thanks to which we depict the world of our children – for them and in their language. This is how recognizable characters and even archetypes appear. The prime examples are heroes Kapitoshka and Petryk Piatochkyn. We believe that our work contributes to the creation of a whole children's mythology – what patterns of behavior children will adopt; what will be of value to them and what will not; how they will think and how much empathy they will have. Our roadmap 2015 – Establishment of the studio KAPI by producer Michał Margulis and children's writer Natalia Guzeeva 2016 – Work on the concept of the film "Trouble Nubble Gum" has been started 2018 – The victory of the project "Trouble Nubble Gum" at the pitching of the Ministry of Culture of Ukraine and the film production start; – Four episodes of the first season of the animated series ""Myshko and Dzvinka"" was created in collaboration with the studio ""Borisfen"" and with the support of the Ukrainian State Film Agency. 2020 – Victory at the pitching of the Ukrainian State Film Agency with the project "Tiger is Strolling Around" 2021 – the film "Tiger is Strolling Around" was selected for the Short Shorts Film Festival & Asia, LA Shorts International Film Festival, Montevideo World Film Festival, Odessa International Film Festival, LINOLEUM Animation Festival, Golden Short Film Festival so far. 2021 – the project of the short animated film “The City of Happy boys” won the pitching of the Ukrainian State Film Agency.
