Twenty-five-year-old Vadym earns a living recording and selling all kinds of different sounds; nevertheless, he’d rather exchange his life in Kyiv for a better future in far-flung Canada. Thus, when he gets a generous job offer which might help him realise his dream, he jumps at the chance; he soon sets off to record the sounds of animals indigenous to Ukraine and also a rare bird native to the Carpathians. The situation proves somewhat more complicated when Vadym’s companion on the trip turns out to be his mother… To the sounds of a synthesized music score, debuting Ukrainian director Antonio Lukich unfolds a visually creative road movie, in which he demonstrates a highly unusual talent for constructing tragicomic situations.

Antonio Lukich constructs his narrative on the contrast between the dry, almost documentary recording of sounds and the emotional chaos of family dynamics. He works with a minimalist visual palette and sparse dialogue to explore the silence and noise both around and within the characters.
What lingers after the viewing is a delicate, ironic, and deeply warm journey where humor coexists with melancholy, and genuine emotional depth hides behind a restrained surface. — MovieFinder Editorial

In a quiet setting, perhaps with someone close, to discuss afterwards.
