Between Before and After

Overview

Between Before and After is a 56-minute performative film inspired by Lina Kostenko’s Berestechko and the war dreams of Ukrainians. Moving between myth and reality, it follows figures such as Bogdan Khmelnytsky, Ukraine, The Witch, The Child, the Refugees, and The Artist, each searching for Ukraine. Through a mythopoetic language, the film reflects on history, war, and cultural memory, offering a poetic meditation on identity, loss, and resilience.
