About film
Tatiana Fedorovskaya (a promising director and producer, a participant of Berlinale Talents - 2019) made a short historical sketch in dimmed colours about the very beginning of the war. A ten-year-old boy runs away from home when Nazi soldiers arrive, accidentally grabbing his mother’s box with hairpins on his way. He escapes the invaders by pure miracle, lives a long life and, sitting at the head of a big table with his family, he remembers that tragic episode of his horrible childhood.
