The film has a powerful story and is beautifully shot. It is an important film and this is a good place to watch it. If you are an English-speaker trying to watch this film, I suggest installing a Chrome plugin like Substital or Auto-Subtitle and looking for subtitle files online. It is worth it!

Дякую за можливість переглянути цей фільм! Викликає неймовірні почуття та роздуми. Що для кожного з нас дім, батьківщина? Чи можемо співчувати та розуміти один одного?... Цей фільм про біль кримськотатарського народу, але не лише про це: розуміння між батьками та дітьми, співчуття та розуміння втрат іншої людини та багато іншого. Дякую!
