One day after Marija finally works up the nerve to tell her husband she wants to separate, Russia invades Ukraine. As they welcome refugees into their now-fractured home in Vilnius, each is forced to reconcile their personal lives with global calamity. This nuanced, perceptive snapshot of life in a country adjacent to a war zone won a Best Director prize at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival. How to Divorce During the War is the latest release from longtime arthouse distributor Zeitgeist Films, whose storied catalog is celebrated in our Sunday afternoon series at the Chazen this fall. (MK)
