A tender portrait of young Ukrainians navigating education, identity, and change as their country transforms in this powerful poetic documentary.
Timestamp is an intimate, time-woven portrait of a generation coming of age in Ukraine, seen through the eyes of young people whose lives have been quietly shaped by uncertainty, resilience, and the slow rhythms of everyday life. Acclaimed Ukrainian filmmaker Kateryna Gornostai (Stop-Earth) returns to the terrain of adolescence--this time in the real world, among her own friends, students, and fellow citizens--as they record themselves, reflect on the passage of time, and search for meaning in a country still reckoning with its past and its fragile present.
Filmed across several years, before and after the full-scale Russian invasion, the film traces how young Ukrainians see themselves and their country transforming. Some have left; others have stayed. Their faces, first carefree and curious, gradually carry the weight of awareness. Yet Timestamp resists tragedy; instead, it finds dignity in small acts of continuity--friendships maintained, creative work pursued, laughter shared amid instability.
Gornostai's approach is deeply participatory: her subjects become co-authors of their own representation. The result is a tender mosaic of voices that collapses the distance between filmmaker and participant, private and political. The film's quietness is its strength--it allows moments to breathe, letting the audience feel the slow pulse of time itself as it moves through a country on the threshold of change.
At once a document and a reflection, Timestamp speaks to the resilience of ordinary lives lived in extraordinary times. It is a film about remembering who we are, how we grow, and how cinema--like memory--holds the power to preserve what cannot be repeated.
