When the world changes while you're trying to make a movie? What if the story of the very country you wanted to make the movie about changes - and you can't help but become swept up in it?
If you are like us, you work to revise the original story and give it that twist that will not only keep up with the times, but also help lead change for the better. We've been keeping up with the times of Ukraine over the past five years. They are ever-changing. One thing that we have learned along the way is about how passionate and resilient Ukrainian people are -- and how much they become even more so in the face of adversity. Can you still make a rom-com while a war is going on? We like to think that we are preparing for better times and focussing on love and hope. It's not denial. Nor is it lack of caring - far from it. We believe that you must spread love to extinguish hate; especially when you are on outside looking in. No one likes to feel helpless. As filmmakers, we believe that cinema is the way to be the change you want to see in the world.
