Opis filmu

Opis oryginalny: ukr

A married couple of artists is creating a mosaic on the wall of a cultural space in Kyiv. They work in the upcycling technique, drawing inspiration from Kyiv's mosaics made during Soviet times. In an era of distinguishing Ukrainian identity from Soviet heritage, the couple emphasizes that not all mosaics are tied to Soviet ideology. Many of them are valuable works by Ukrainian artists, deserving reinterpretation and preservation for future generations. Cultural heritage can be reimagined and maintained — upcycling applies not only to objects but also to culture. While working on their first large-scale mosaic, the couple is expecting their first child. They dream that one day their son will proudly tell others that it was his parents who created the mosaic adorning the wall in Kyiv.
