WHEN LIGHTNING FLASHES OVER THE SEA
Set in the Ukrainian port city of Odesa, this film traces the lives of ordinary people whose memories, dreams, and resilience illuminate a city scarred by absence and destruction. From day labourers on the Black Sea to a boy dreaming of chocolate cake, from refugees and widows to survivors and wanderers, their stories reveal a poetic, deeply human portrait of a place where everyday life persists against the backdrop of war.
