Storyline
On a cold February morning, 12-year-old Niki and his family arrive at the Kharkiv metro station to take shelter from the terrifying war raging outside. For Niki's family, daylight is synonymous with mortal danger, and the boy is not allowed to leave the station premises, living under the constant glow of their neon lights. While aimlessly wandering around the abandoned cars and full platforms, Niki meets Vika (11), and a new world opens up to him. The directors juxtaposed the timeless, aimless life lived by Niki and his family with the chilling scenes playing out on ground level. The observations of a war-ravaged country might seem as the distant ideas of a traumatized child – if only the audience did not know that this was the reality of Ukraine nowadays.
