Renowned actor, writer and director Liev Schreiber recently released "Meeting Zelenskyy", a feature documentary in which he sits down with Ukraine's embattled leader. In an extended conversation, Schreiber speaks actor-to-actor about Volodymyr Zelenskyy's rise from entertainer to war time leader. In this exclusive interview with Laura Flanders, Schreiber discusses how the documentary came to be, how he personally became involved, and how technology could shape the outcome of the Russia-Ukraine war. The film includes never-before-seen footage from Zelenskyy's childhood and career. Join us for this historic conversation, plus a commentary from Laura. "I've always felt optimistic about this because [Ukraine is] on the side of truth. That's the kind of thing you can cover briefly, but it always comes out, it always surfaces. It's also the kind of thing that builds morale. It builds courage. It builds principle. They have that on their side, where the Russian military is struggling." - Liev Schreiber "This was never about Ukraine for me. This was always about American values and democracy and what it is, where it comes from and what it means. I don't think those values and those principles are on display anywhere more clearly than in Ukraine." - Liev Schreiber Guest: Liev Schreiber: Award-Winning Actor, Director & Writer; Co-Founder, BlueCheck Ukraine
