Project Title: Waltz for Ukraine

Brief Synopsis: The gentleness of ordinary lives: the city, a house, a warm interior. Outside, nature stretches peacefully with its forests, rivers, and fields. From their semicircular chambers, men argue over territories on maps, as if they were sharing a cake. The decision is made: war is declared. From his podium, a man presses a button, triggering an explosion. This gesture sets off a barrage of bombs and plunges the world into chaos. Production lines go into overdrive to manufacture weapons, while money flows freely, fueling this macabre trade. Bulldozers crush trees, giving way to devastated landscapes. The brutality of war imposes itself on screen: a violinist is shot, and his violin shatters into pieces. Refugees flee, hide, and desperately try to survive. These scenes of chaos are intercut with contemplative moments, imbued with symbols of mourning and reflection, highlighting the scale of human loss. Nature eventually finds a way through the rubble. People open their homes and welcome survivors.
