Somewhere in the Carpathians between Ukraine, Slovakia and Poland lies the village of Stuzhytsia. In Ukrainian the name of the village means something like "cold place". The film tells the stories of three women: the farmer Hanna, the postwoman Maria and the biologist Nelya. In the middle of the mountains, they have to cope with social reality and loneliness. The colder the Carpathian winter gets, the more human warmth the film team finds. The film portrays an unknown place in the middle of Europe, where people have to decide daily between leaving and staying.
Director
Maksym Melnyk first worked as a television journalist at the Transcarpathian regional broadcaster until he began studying film directing at the Academy of Performing Arts in Bratislava (Slovakia), then master's studies in documentary film directing at the Konrad Wolf Film University in Potsdam-Babelsberg. In 2022 he graduated with his first feature-length film DREI FRAUEN.
