Long Echo

Long Echo - Of the time when the people searched for a new idea for their country? Or from the Maidanrevolution that seemed to divide the country into two camps? The film portrays the place Dobropolje, in the east Ukraine - 70 km from the separatist border away- and some of it´s people. The protagonists are inventive and grasping: they redirect a single club, build a zoo with chameleons that must be smuggled over the new border. The film shows a region that not only in Europe kept playing on our minds for many months. It shows people on the periphery of the war, how it changed their daily lives and how people react on their new and old needs. Their struggle for survival is sometimes not without quirky moments that give the film an unexpected lightness.
