A tragicomic musical documentary exploring the heights of the cabaret genre in the modern world, following the seven female artists of the intellectual freak cabaret ‘Daughters of Dahk’.
Living through a pivotal moment in the history of their country, the Maidan Revolution of 2014, art becomes a way for the Dakh Daughters to reflect upon those events and face harsh realities with wisdom and hope. This political cabaret draws its magic from combining the joie de vivre and the horror of the devastating war — even if we don’t see it, its shadow is always there, darkened by the bright stage lights.
Roses.Film-Cabaret plays in support of Ukrainian filmmakers as part of ‘Stand with DocuDays’, a collaboration between One World Media, Guardian Documentaries and Bertha DocHouse, on behalf of Ukraine’s DocuDays UA film festival.
