A meditation on the nature of memory and distance disguised as an autobiography that is questioning its own integrity.

A meditation on the nature of memory and distance disguised as an autobiography that is questioning its own integrity. Completed in February 2020, the film tries to approach some main questions of the Ukrainian émigré identity of the last decade while developing intuitions of the era to come. By adopting the form of a video letter, the film works with senses and phantom feelings, using history as its background and fuel. A night travelogue of sorts and a remembrance of a past that did not happen, this video essay tries to find words and images for states of transition, fragility and longing. Its own incompleteness is not a failure, but an invitation to dialogue.
