I am an Ukrainian director living in Madrid. I was born and raised in Luhansk, a typical post-Soviet city in eastern Ukraine.

   When the war began, in 2014, I entered the theater university in Kyiv where I studied to observe, fantasize and create characters for 4 years. At the same time, I played in the theater, starred in commercials and TV shows. I ended up falling in love with the movie making process. In 2020, I graduated as a Master of Directing at EFTI Film School in Madrid, with the a degree honors.

   In my works, I balance between dreams and reality, trying to find a physical form for feelings. I like to experiment with camera movements, find interesting faces, and I really love working with actors. I want people to feel more alive after seeing my work.
