A Pike is No Fish

2025 · 16 min · Documentary, Music

Is there a future without knowledge of history, culture and tradition? Dmytro, a potter and soloist of the ethno-group "Shchuka Ryba" (what literally means "pike fish"), is looking for an answer to this question, trying to introduce respect and love for tradition into the life of modern Kyiv. But the heart of the capital, Khreshchatyk, is full of oblivion and pain.
