Docu Days UA 2018 - Main Award
 
One might think of it as chaotic, but a form is a form only if it is convincing. Many avant-gardists have put their camera on the ground and taken up a direct, more primitive way of looking at themselves and the world around them. Zhenya does that, too, assisted by a filmmaker whose editing skills just rock. The result lifts a seemingly naïve and simply hilarious, at times tragic account of life (of the 'man in the world' type) onto another level – a reflection of history, a transition in time.

WHEREUFROM
director Dmytro Lavrinenko
Ukraine

Zhenya is 45 years old, lives in Ukraine, and works as a street cleaner. His mother lives in the US and got him a green card. To maintain it, he has to travel to America every year. Zhenya is looking some woman and wants to married. He is records his life on video. As the author of this film, I also recorded some episodes of Zhenya's life. As a result, the two realities merged in one film.
