Prize of the Ecumenical Jury, Kyiv 2006 (International Competition for Feature Films)

This film tells the story of a street-sweeper who dreams to become a poet. He lives in very poor and desperate circumstances, but it does not ruin his dream. The difficulties of his everyday life do not influence his inner world and he manages to love people, to enjoy every moment of his life and to continue dreaming. This poor man manages to keep his human dignity and love towards people and life itself in any circumstance.

The jury found the message of this film very important for people who are trying today to survive in a modern society, full of problems and hard circumstances. The message is that each of us should go through this life keeping the human dignity and dream in his heart, loving people and life. (Photo: © CICinema)
