All made-up in fluffy pink dresses, a group of young girls audition for the role of figure skater Oksana Baiul; the first Olympic champion in independent Ukraine. Endearing sweetness unfolds into an extraordinary observation of the fragility of dreams, and a scarred country.
'The Face of Ukraine: Casting Oksana Baiul' appears in the 2015 Sheffield Doc/Fest programme.
