The foreign grandson against the Carpathian grandfather – a comedy and the life of every Ukrainian family!
Synopsis: Michele lives the life of an ordinary teenager in sunny Italy. One day, his life turns upside down, and he is forced to embark on a distant journey to a small village in the Carpathians, where, as it turns out, he has a grandfather! The first meeting did not go according to plan, as the grandfather turned out to be a grumpy old man who doesn’t know a word of either English or Italian. Moreover, the conditions in the Ukrainian village of Berezhnytsia differ from Genoa. The grandson plans to return home as soon as possible, but it seems he is stuck here… The relationship between the grandfather and grandson turns into a battle of two generations, but in the end, they both discover the significant importance of family and compromise.
The film is in Ukrainian with English subtitles.
*This event is a rental. Cash only tickets will be available on the day of the screening. Normal Mayfair prices and memberships do not apply.
*Please take note that doors open 30 minutes before showtimes. We encourage people to arrive early. We have a small box office, a small candy bar, and a single-screen cinema, meaning that when most of an audience shows up a few minutes before showtime, it causes a bottleneck. If possible, we appreciate you arriving a little bit early to pick out your seat and get your popcorn. Thanks for your help!
