Olha's Italian Diary

Olha is a migrant woman whose life is packed with turning points enough to fill up a few telenovelas and yet, it is so similar to the lives of many women of such background - Ukrainian care workers in Italy. She believes in love and thinks it is possible to find a beautiful romantic relationship even at the age of 57. The short film is an intimate sneak-peek into one of the contemporary taboo topics: intimate lives of the female migrants away from home. Will Olha be able to give Naples a chance and find a true feeling among the condemnation and suspicion? The short film was produced during Verzio Film Festival's DocLab workshop in November 8-13, 2016, Budapest, Hungary. Subsequently, the director made a full-length film based on the same material. The full-length film received the same title as the short film. The short film was used as a trailer in promotion.
