Overview

Taras Hrynchenko, a lonely elderly war veteran, decides to cut all contacts with his family for reasons unbeknownst to anyone but himself. His eight-year-old son Mirchyk accidentally comes across a pile of unopened letters that the family has been trying to send to Taras for years, yet, as they were never able to trace him, the letters never reached their intended destination. However, after a surprising mishap, the family ultimately ends up together at the Christmas table. However, things aren't as idyllic as it seems, with the many unresolved conflicts and grievances threatening to undermine an idyllic reunion.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A quiet, tender story about old wounds resurfacing when estrangement finally breaks. The film balances the fragile warmth of forced proximity with the weight of years left unspoken.
