The end of the world isn’t a global catastrophe, but an inner sense of total collapse, like for a man who’s lost his job and doubts his wife’s loyalty. In despair, he goes fishing and finds a wounded angel. He takes the angel home on his bicycle and introduces him to his family. But soon after, during a party at a local bar, the angel is accidentally shot by a neighborhood policeman. Based on Gabriel García Márquez’s short story 'A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings'.

The authors of the film spend several weeks observing four people on the eve of the presidential elections in Ukraine. All four of them are from different regions of Ukraine - Donetsk, Crimea, Irpin and Kyiv. What they have in common are the wounds they received during the protest actions in Ukraine. Maidan is losing its relevance, and the four characters in the film are trying to deal with their personal problems and take an active part in the country's civic life.

The forefront of the global opposition between the state machine, corporations, and communities has been in Ukraine for the past few years. Symbols of the Maidan revolution – Molotov cocktails and burning tires – had already appeared in 2010 in a small village near Odessa. The community’s voice was not heard, and a peaceful protest against a mighty state energy project inevitably turned into violent clashes. Live Power is a four-year story, the story of the fight by the residents of the village of Usatovo against two transmission lines financed by EBRD to be built over their village, a story with the happy end.

A documentary film reflection. A daughter attempts to decipher and memorize the "universe of her dad," a lightning researcher, whom, as it turned out after his death, she never fully got to know. Neither he nor his lasting legacy. This is her attempt to think about how long our memory lasts about the people who meant something to us, who did something and created something next to us. The film attempts to fix the fleeing clues of memory in time to keep it longer. And, of course, she attempts to remember everything or at least something he was for her.

Since childhood, Yevhen has shown a peculiar fascination with cemeteries; today he is the author of more than a hundred monuments. In his community, he plays an important social role by drawing attention to memory and reconciliation, creating memorials for those who found their final rest in a small town in western Ukraine. Throughout the film, we observe this eccentric man with his homespun philosophy and sense of humor, who manages to combine cosmopolitanism and asceticism with an active, provocative presence in the everyday life of his community.

In the 90s, Kyiv was captured by a new culture that came from the West - breakdance. Yurii Savchuk, or Flus, was the one who "brought breakdancing to Ukraine". It is the story of the man who has changed the cultural landscape of our country and still lives the dream of dance.

Anton is an ordinary guy from Kryvyi Rih who plays computer games, listens to rap music, and works as an IT engineer. But after the Revolution of Dignity, he began fighting against the corrupt local authorities, which are still dominated by representatives of the regime of fugitive president Viktor Yanukovych and Soviet methods of governance.
