The Living Fire, 2014
This stunningly beautiful and poetic movie chronicles three generations of Ukrainian Carpathian shepherds who struggle to keep their ancient trade alive in the face of modernity. It is a story about pitiless daily labor that knows no weekends, about a harmonious world that we’ve lost in our search for comfort, about the childhood that is left behind when one takes on the role of an adult … The Living Fire has been a critical and viewers’ success at many film festivals around the world.
