Das Mädchen aus Kyjiw

The series, partially produced in Ukraine, premiered in Croatia a few days after Russia began its 2022 invasion of Ukraine and the team put out a message of support for the country and its citizen before the broadcast. When came the time to shoot the second season, which had to be rewritten with the war still ongoing, it was decided to still film three days in Ukraine between February 23 and 25, 2023, directed remotely (as opposed to 25 for the first season), mainly capturing establishing shots as well as some key scenes with the Ukrainian cast. This was done because though the Ukrainian co-production company partners no longer existed, the people, cast and crew, were still there and the filmmakers wanted to support them and the local industry.
