It’s a time-lapse of one of the shots for the film “Through my eyes”. Director is Iuliia Skibiniuk. Five years ago her ordinary morning started like that. She ran along Spaska street or Horiva street, dived into the subway and then was daily routine. But that was charming routine, decorated by Podol vibe, when every morning was wonderful and at the evening after work she was walking along the cozy streets, hanging out at a cafe or on the riverbank, not intending to go home. Several shots in her short film “ Through my eyes” are dedicated to Kyiv. It is a declaration of love. That is how she sees Kyiv energetic and charming. Stay tuned and you will know where the spell is hidden. ❓✏️💛 юлия скибинюк
