In response,\u00a0French\u00a0philosopher and filmmaker Bernard-Henri L\u00e9vy returns to Ukraine to capture\u00a0Ukraine\u2019s deep humanity despite the dire conditions, and a civilian resilience and resistance unlike any other.\u00a0In\u00a0Glory to the Heroes,\u00a0L\u00e9vy,\u00a0along with his co-director Marc Roussel,\u00a0spends the summer in eastern Ukraine recording for the world a\u00a0passionate ode to Ukraine\u2019s courage on the battlefield while also depicting the overwhelming sorrow sowed by Russia\u2019s continuous attacks on civilians.
