This short film is a grotesque reflection of the threat of death that could come at any moment from Russian missiles and other weapons.
This artistic expression sends a shout-out to John Smith, an English avant-garde director.
Film is an embodiment of the idea that a person feels safe when he or she has a sense of control.

Ania Na
Ania Na was born in 1990 in Ukraine. She studied biology and philology, but did not finish her studies; she dreamed of studying to become an actress, and tried to apply five times in Lviv, Kyiv, Kharkiv. She heard ‘small height’, then ‘no type’ and then ‘too old’. In Ukraine, there is an unofficial ‘rule’: people can only enter the acting department before they turn 23. Ania makes documentaries by observing the life around her.
