About

An Italian teenager with Ukrainian roots travels to a Carpathian village and meets his grandfather, whose different culture and language make their first encounter difficult.

A drama comedy from Italy and Ukraine, the film follows Mike (Simone Costa), an Italian teenager with Ukrainian roots who lives in Italy. One day he travels to a small village in the Carpathians, where he meets his grandfather Mykhailo (Bohdan Beniuk). Their first meeting is difficult: the two belong to different generations, grew up in different cultures and they do not even speak the same language.

Grandfather and grandson gradually discover one another and learn to find common ground.
