title: Armed and Happy

overview: The film focuses on the emotionality of social media and its role in the militarization of Ukrainian society. The ability of social media to capture emotions and retranslate them, turn emotional contagion into a closed collective practice, and the community — into a single organism capable of achieving real change. This form of collectivity, which develops on the basis of digital interaction, can have very different consequences. Where exactly is the line between solidarity and radicalization? How can empathy turn into hatred?

Five years later, Ukraine’s war shifted pain’s symbolism from escape to a new normality, as many young people joined military and volunteer efforts.

title: Svetlograd

overview: There was once an agglomeration that went by the name of Svetlograd, itself the result of a merger of the three cities Lysychansk, Rubizhne und Severnodonetsk. The locals used to make a living thanks to the chemical plant, which was virtually a monopoly employer in the region. Subsequently however the plant was closed and the locals made redundant. Nevertheless they refused to give up, and proceded to craft imaginative artworks from cardboard, metal and other materials left behind by the factory, soon transforming the city into a new Ukrainian centre for modern art. That it could have turned out this way is illustrated by this pseudo-documentary, in which interviews with fictitious locals, videos and archive images of the factory create a pretence of authenticity.

title: View in the future: Collective, Happiness 100%, Ruine or shell

overview: Using dystopian storytelling, the project deals with the common close connection between technology and humans. In the form of a video installation with multiple series, the subjects are built on the idea of bodyless life and its different combinations. How will beings of such a distinct future life form look together, what questions or problems can emerge in their connections? The overplayed stories about these future beings are necessary for searching for maybe the most unexpected, but difficult questions in the context of the conjunction of people and artificial intelligence.

overview: The manuscript of this legend was found in the scythian tomb in Kherson in 1918. Fanatical staff of the local history museum were hiding it from communist invaders for 90 years. During hard timesof perestroika they had to sell thi document abroad but it didn’t pass the border guard that later hung it on the WC door. And there I’ve discovered it. I had deliberately got off the train to pee because of the vomiting smell of chinese sandals and soviet clysters which I had been illegally carrying to Poland. So I read this and it touched me so deeply that I decided to tell all the world about it for people not fooling around anymore but doing something good and great.

title: Flags of Propaganda

overview: “Battleship Potemkin is one of the best-known films in history. However, in its essence, it was the propaganda of the Bolsheviks. The climax of the film, which confirms the previous thesis, is the raising of a red flag over the deck of the battleship. However, recording such a frame was difficult, due to the specifics of black and white cinema. That's why Sergei Eisenstein decided to shoot a white flag. For the premiere of, he painted each frame of the film with a flag in red. In my work, I repeat this gesture, colouring each frame with the flag, but with the only difference that instead of the Bolshevik flag, I use the colours of the flags of the most influential ideologies, the struggle of which is in the modern Ukrainian society.”

title: The Sound of the Rainbow

overview: The film’s plot is based on rehearsals at a theatre for the deaf, showing the complex working process of hard-of-hearing directors and actors. They constantly search for forms, images, and unique ways to convey the entire dramaturgy to the audience without a single word. It is reminiscent of early silent cinema — a universal, international language of gesture and movement. In addition, between rehearsals, we see the “backstage” life of the theatre: the work and daily routines of deaf lighting technicians, makeup artists, and costume designers.

title: Звук Райдуги

overview: Сюжет фільму базується на проведенні репетицій в театрі глухих, де показується складний процес роботи слабочуючих режисерів та акторів. Їх постійний пошук форм, образів та унікальних способів передачі всієї драматургії глядачу без жодного слова. Це як німий кінематограф на перших своїх кроках, це саме та універсальна і міжнародна мова жестів і пластики. Крім того, між репетиціями, ми бачимо «залаштунки» театру – роботу і побут таких само нечуючих освітлювачів, гримерів, костюмерів.

title: In Case We Never Meet Again

title: In Case We Never Meet Again

overview: Während Tanya und Zenit um Nähe ringen und ihre fragile Beziehung zwischen Zärtlichkeit und Konflikt schwankt, verarbeiten Kinder den Ausnahmezustand auf ihre eigene Weise – sie spielen Krieg, bauen aus Klötzen Kontrollposten und schlüpfen in Rollen, die ihnen Macht und Schutz versprechen.  Doch Laras Traum ist ein anderer: Entschlossen, die Kriegsfantasien nicht zur einzigen Zukunft werden zu lassen, lenkt sie das Spiel um: Aus dem Rollenspiel entsteht ein gemeinsames Theaterprojekt in der Nachbarschaft – eine neue Geschichte, die nicht von Zerstörung, sondern von Möglichkeit erzählt. Zwischen Erinnerungen, Träumen und einer Gegenwart, die jederzeit verschwinden könnte, sucht der Film nach Verbindung und Hoffnung – leise und zutiefst gegenwärtig.

As rockets fall and fires rage, they face an impossible choice: flee the violence or stay and protect their home. When a soldier on his way to the frontline asks the couple if they can care for his goats – all 37 of them – while he fights in the trenches; their home transforms into the largest animal sanctuary in Eastern Ukraine. From rescued chickens, displaced donkeys, wandering horses and even emus, Anatoliy and Zhenye risk their lives and livelihoods to rescue any part of Ukraine they can. Told primarily through verité, amidst constant danger, heartbreaking loss and improbably an inextinguishable reservoir of hope, Zhenye and Anatoliy’s sanctuary stands as a defiant testament to the unbreakable bond between a nation, its people, and the land they refuse to surrender.

Abandoned by his family, he finds support only in his brother, whom he asks to bury him under a viburnum tree so that birds will come and sing songs to him. Visually, the video contrasts with the song's content: instead of winter landscapes, the viewer sees a desert, sand, and hot colors that emphasize the themes of loneliness, mortality, and the illusory nature of the legacy that a person strives to leave behind. This is a work about alienation and the fragility of human life, but also about friendship and memory that unites across time.

His letters (2003–2007) about solitary life abroad embody a desire not to forget the period of transformation in Ukraine.

Reappearing during the Holocaust, it gained new significance as an expression of suffering and loss, an echo of a catastrophe unfolding again. In Just Landscape, the song operates as both an auditory and emotional anchor, resonating with themes of displacement, war, and survival.

title: Never Again

overview: A mother and son exist in a confined space of constant conflict, where every conversation turns into a fight. They flee their own identities, where love becomes a form of pressure, and care a source of hatred. Both characters speak the same language, but they invest words with different meanings, leaving each other no chance to be heard. The disappearance of their son becomes the point of no return. Having lost her last connection to life, the mother is left alone with a void where suicide is not a cry for help, but the result of a total misunderstanding. It's about the silence that follows words spoken too late.

title: Я більше не буду

overview: Мать и сын существуют в замкнутом пространстве постоянных конфликтов, где каждый разговор превращается в бой.  Побег от собственной личности, когда любовь становится формой давления, а забота — источником ненависти. Оба героя говорят на одном языке, но вкладывают в слова разные смыслы, не оставляя друг другу возможности быть услышанными.  Исчезновение сына становится точкой невозврата. Потеряв последнюю связь с жизнью, мать остаётся один на один с пустотой, где акт самоубийства — не крик о помощи, а итог тотального непонимания.  О тишине, которая возникает после слов, сказанных слишком поздно.
