I Am a Monument to Myself

Since childhood, Yevhen has shown a peculiar fascination with cemeteries; today he is the author of more than a hundred monuments. In his community, he plays an important social role by drawing attention to memory and reconciliation, creating memorials for those who found their final rest in a small town in western Ukraine. Throughout the film, we observe this eccentric man with his homespun philosophy and sense of humor, who manages to combine cosmopolitanism and asceticism with an active, provocative presence in the everyday life of his community.
