Synopsis: Our memories play an important role in the construction of identity and self-awareness. My childhood memories have acquired a special value for me since the outbreak of the full-scale war in Ukraine, my home country. For many children, this time will become a formative memory. My childhood in Ukraine was different and I want to share it with the audience in the form of an animated short. In the film I tell a personal story about my childhood memories and explore how memories are preserved and why they have a special meaning for people.

Submitter Statement:  I graduated in Animation in 2013 from the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design in Budapest, Hungary.
Besides short films and animated scenes for movies, my focus is primarily on making music videos.
Music videos are especially inspiring for me because instead of narrative story-telling I can create visual poetry based on associative images.
I also like to work on animated documentary films because with animation it’s possible to express the more subjective parts of a narrative.

Synopsis: On the verge of sleep, two young sisters find themselves facing the fear of war. Imaginary characters come to their aid: a turtle, a spiky hedgehog, a missile, and a tooth fairy that doesn’t really exist. Their mother does everything in her power to stop their loss of innocence but discovers that the task is more difficult than she imagined.

Submitter Statement:  This is a film about parenting during wartime, inspired on real questions my daughters asked me during the war.
Like any child, they tried to understand the new reality that was imposed on them after the 7.10 massacre. Their questions were innocent and at the same time so painful.
This film offers a poignant glimpse into the realities of war through the perspectives of two young girls, shedding light on the dilemmas faced by every parent in this situation.
This is my debut film.
