Alina Cheban

A guy from Germany becomes a volunteer at the festival to make a female organizer fall in love with him but instead loses an elderly headliner of Atlas Weekend. Guys from Kryvyi Rig organize a legendary stag party but quarrel like children and fight like adults. A young girl from Odessa looks for her rocker dad who she hasn’t seen and instead constructed an ideal image of for 10 years. A career-climber from Lviv arrives for the most important interview in her life but her younger brother disrupts absolutely all of her plans. This is going to be the craziest trip of our characters and their Best Weekend!

A raw portrait of a group of rebellious youth thrust into adulthood too soon, navigating the wreckage of the Soviet regime set in the late 1990s in Kyiv.

The evening of February 23 was the same as Alina's last 187 evenings - talking with her parents, talking with her beloved Serhiy. Alina could not have imagined that after falling asleep that happy evening, she would wake up in hell.

Seventeen-year-old Yasha is rebelling against authority. But in the USSR of 1990, some opposing forces are more dangerous than others. Determined not to give in, Yasha’s need for self-expression will propel him to the precipice of irreparable harm.
