OT: Я і Фелікс

Iryna Tsilyk // Ukraine, 2022
Fiction Feature // FF2023

Story

The subtly humorous coming-of-age drama is also a melancholic portrait of post-Soviet Ukraine in the 1990s. Tymophiy’s grandmother’s new lover is a traumatised Afghanistan veteran and gun nut – but increasingly becomes a role model for the easily manipulated teenager.

Director

IRYNA TSILYK (*1982 in Kyiv) came to international attention with her award-winning documentary The Earth Is Blue as an Orange (2020). Rock. Paper. Grenade is her debut feature.
