Is there such a thing as "their prayer"?
My rate for this movie is 6 because it doesn't hold out to the world level. But we can say it's 8 for modern Ukrainian cinematography.
The movie is based on the true story - it's a story of a usual, but very brave Crimean Tatar girl named Saide. During the Second World War, She saved 88 Jewish children from imminent death twice.
Once this young girl rescued children from the German invaders. She said that they were Tatars, she gave them new names and taught them a new prayer. For awhile children could live a normal, happy life. But not too long, because at the end of the war, she had to save her "own" children once more. This time - from the NKVD troops, who began forcible deportation of the Crimean Tatars from Crimea.
The film is full of metaphors that will become pleasant memories and conversation themes for a lot of viewers for a long time. The creative group successfully create a good historical drama, which answers many questions concerning the history of Ukraine, the genocide, the life of exceptional people and the humanity by itself.
