MYTH

Description

"MYTH" - a new film by the authors of the film "Volunteers of God's Chota" - Leonid Kanter and Ivan Yasniy - tells the story of the life and death of Vasyl Slipak - an opera singer with a world name and a unique voice. The film will be released in theaters in January 2018. Vasyl was born in Lviv, but thanks to his unique voice he won competition after competition and eventually moved to France, where he lived for 19 years. There he had everything we used to call "happiness": a name, a successful career on world opera stages, loyal friends and love. He took an active part in the Revolution of Dignity, leading demonstrations in France, and later joined the volunteer movement, helping Ukraine. It would seem that he did more than enough for a person in a creative profession. But Vasyl decided to leave the stage and his career in Europe and join the ranks of volunteers when the war came to his native country. While performing a combat mission, Vasyl "MYTH" Slipak was killed by a sniper's bullet.
