Aftermath VR: Euromaidan. Documentarity in the immersive space

Virtual reality may be the closest the humanity ever got to the much dreamt of “time machine”. Nowadays, there are countless VR/AR projects recreating significant historic events with varying levels of factual accuracy and fictionalization. In Aftermath VR: Euromaidan, the immersive documentary about the bloody morning of February 20, 2014, creators wanted to tell a comprehensive and accurate story, and minimize approximation. The solution was doing a photogrammetric scan of downtown Kyiv, adhering to visual archives of individuals and media outlets, and interviewing eyewitnesses of the events, so the viewers could retrace the path the protesters took on that day.
