Born To Be seeks to explore the intimate process of becoming who you are meant to be while amplifying immigrant voices that are often unseen in New York City, particularly those from the Ukrainian community. Set against the ongoing war in Ukraine, the film gives space to experiences of grief, displacement, and identity that are deeply personal yet urgently contemporary, offering visibility to a community navigating loss far from home. In a moment when Ukrainian voices are more important than ever, the project aims to create empathy, recognition, and understanding through a grounded, human story.
