Vita Smachelyuk

When the son of Ukrainian immigrant Irina is attacked, the whole city stands up in solidarity with her family and condemns their Roma neighbors, who allegedly committed the crime. But soon another truth starts to emerge.

He returns home in good health, but the mental scars of war aren't far below the surface. Nevertheless she does everything within her power to assist his readjustment to a life lived together.

Inspired by the events around the life of Lev Rebet, Ukrainian author and editor-in-chief of the Munich-based exile newspaper "Ukrainian Independist", the film portrays the fates of the Ukrainian diaspora in the past and present.
