The Norwegian documentary Facing War, which world premiered at the opening gala of CPH:DOX, has its theatrical release in Norway on April 4.

With unprecedented access to NATO’s inner sanctum, we follow Jens Stoltenberg's final year as NATO Secretary General. As Russia's war in Ukraine rages on, Stoltenberg promises President Volodymyr Zelenskyj that the alliance will stand by Ukraine for as long as it takes. The film takes you inside the high-stakes power struggles between global leaders like Macron, Biden, Zelensky, Erdoğan, and Orbán. It is a story about the art of diplomacy in a time where safety and democracy is at risk. Can Stoltenberg keep his word to Zelensky?
