A single mother is confused by the changes in her teenage son, who has become distant since spending summer vacation with his father.

The film "Mama" is one of Gennadiy Karyuk’s first directorial works. It tells the story of two women who meet while on vacation. One lost her daughter long ago; the other bears a striking resemblance to her. Is it a mirage, a mistake, or fate? The director tells the story not through dialogue, but by prioritizing visual imagery and editing.
