IMDB

The universe of Ukrainian village has always been one of the key topics for Oleksandr Koval. This film is his cinematic testament and, at the same time, a lyrical cinematic confession, which was filmed in his native village of Zherdova near Kyiv, where he was born and where he started his "career in cinema" as a cinema mechanic. This work is particularly illustrative with regard to Koval's tragic view of himself as a person who had to conceal his true self throughout his life.
