In The Shade of White Acacias

The film is about the new social conditions in our country, which have caused a change in survival strategies for a simple rural family. Using the example of one family, it examines the model of today's life in Ukraine, full of daily worries and struggles with difficult circumstances. Instead of enjoying a well-deserved rest in the shade of white acacia trees, Grandpa Ivan and Grandma Stepanida are struggling to survive and provide for their five children in the midst of a crisis. The film explores the personal perspectives of surprisingly open-minded and remarkably optimistic ordinary people in today's difficult situation.
