From Ukraine to Sudan: A Special Edition from the Photoville Festival | Press Talks

In this special edition of Press Talks, recorded at the Photoville Festival in New York City, Jarosław Włodarczyk speaks with Sam Barzilay, Francesca Forquet, Edith Arance, Dr. Jean Amanda Junior, and Dr. Mohammed Fadlalla about the role of photojournalism in documenting conflict, displacement, and everyday survival in war-torn regions.

Moving through exhibitions dedicated to Ukraine, Afghanistan, and Sudan, the episode explores how visual storytelling captures the experiences of ordinary people living through violence, uncertainty, and humanitarian crises. The discussion highlights the power of photography not only to document destruction, but also to preserve memory and resilience in places often reduced to geopolitical narratives.

The program is hosted by Jarosław Włodarczyk, President of Press Club Poland, who brings together international voices to examine how global events are documented, understood, and remembered beyond political headlines.
