With a sober style, the director once again speaks about youth, female perspectives, and adolescence through the true story of Nismet Hrehorchuk, a complicated life that manages to avoid sensationalism and instead build a path to emancipation. Denying social determinism, the character forges her own destiny and freedom, managing to overcome the barriers that could keep her in the same vicious circle as her mother. It may be overly positive in the portrayal of some situations, but it is a story about perseverance despite experiencing dramatic situations, conveying a message of tenacity that is ultimately hopeful.
