Yushchenko Stole My Pants (2026)

Four punk buddies from Alchevsk head to a winter camp in Burshtyn, where they unleash a string of ridiculous stunts—sawing a wardrobe in half, blasting a fire extinguisher indoors, and hauling their friend Stepan’s bed straight into the bathroom. Built entirely from Sasha Chepeliev’s school-era video and photo archives (2005–2006) and stitched together with a cycle of original songs by the director, this film is a funny and heartbreaking trip through adolescence—when cruelty walked hand in hand with tenderness, and playing with political slogans still felt like nothing more than a game.
