SYNOPSIS

One dawn. One girl. One lightbulb. The rest - hope. For her, this morning is a rehearsal for meeting her beloved: in the hush of a small apartment she moves almost naked, radically honest alone with her dreams. In today’s Ukraine, between “He” and “She” stands an unspoken third -“It,” a presence that intrudes on intimacy. Yet their meeting draws nearer with every minute, despite “It.” Some yield to it. Some overcome it.
