Ptitsa

Set during a pandemic, the story unfolds in the family home. Part of the house is the mother's online music school. The other part – the daughter's painting studio. The two worlds rarely collide, constituting a metaphor for human loneliness. Ultimately, someone's death will bring them both together. „Ptitsa” in Ukrainian means „a little bird” - strong but fragile.
