Beautiful storytelling
5 September 2021
They Who Surrounds Us unfolds slowly and beautifully as it takes the audience through one man's descent into and rise out of grief. The contrast between the 1943 Ukraine flashbacks to the present (1987) is artfully balanced, and the film's score further enhances the depth of the story.

Between delicate and thoughtful instrumental melodies, the haunting Ukrainian lullaby woven throughout, and Canadian country singer Brett Kissel's original song that will stick in your head long after you leave the theatre, the music is a major star of this show. Excellent performances and gorgeous cinematography!
