Synopsis
Fragments of Ice is a documentary essay woven from a rare family VHS archive of a Soviet Ukrainian Ballet on Ice star. As his daughter, Maria, rediscovers the videotaped intimate family moments and her father’s foreign tours from the 80s and 90s, a clash between the utopian vision of the West and the oppressive Soviet reality unfolds. By telling the complex historical events of the collapse of the USSR and the restoration of Ukraine's independence through a personal story, the film offers a nuanced exploration of resilience, identity, and hope - up to the present day.
