From Ukraine to LA: How Mila Kunis' family fled the Soviet Union when she was 7 years old
Mila Kunis, born Milena Markovna Kunis, is a proud Ukrainian, originally from Chernivtsi. Her Jewish family fled Ukraine, which at the time was a Soviet republic, when she was only seven years old in 1991, right before its fall.
