In 2015, Mantas Kvedaravicius filmed life in Mariupol, the Ukrainian port city that was attacked with rockets by pro-Russian soldiers during a ceasefire. In 2022, shortly after the start of the Russian war of aggression on Ukraine, Mantas Kvedaravicius returns to Mariupol. There, in the centre of the war, he wanted to be with the people he had met and filmed in 2015. At the end of March, he is captured and killed by Russian forces in Mariupol. The filmed material can be saved, and Kvedaravicius' producers and collaborators have put all their energy into passing on his work, his vision and his films.

With great power and sensitivity, "Mariupolis 2" depicts life in the midst of the bombardment, showing images that both show tragedy and convey hope.
In a shooting note, Mantas Kvedaravicius writes: "Do you know what is most extraordinary about Mariupol? None of the inhabitants feared death ... Death was already there and nobody wanted to die for nothing. People supported each other, even if they risked their lives."
