Maidan survivor stories

Outlook

Available for over a year

More than 50 protesters and three policemen died in February last year during the bloodiest days of Kiev's Maidan uprising. A year on, we hear the stories of people in Maidan Square at the time - reporting, helping the wounded, and even getting married. Gabrielle Jackson is an Australian journalist who survived being run over by a train whilst on a trip to India. And the producer of Oscar nominated film Leviathan, Alexander Rodnyansky talks about the controversy surrounding the film and its depiction of Russia. This programme has been edited since first broadcast. (Photo: A picture taken on February 20, 2014 shows the Maidan Nezalezhnosti monument (Independence Square) in central Kiev.
