From alcohol to heroism. One morning, Valera wakes up as a local hero. The problem is he doesn't remember anything... A short film on morals, profiteering and that what is really important.
Olga Artushevska
Director's statement:
In this movie it was very important for me to show that what we should always remember: that we're people and we should be honest – first of all, with ourself.
A film written and directed by a then 20-year-old Olga Artushevska from the Ukraine.
