Reviews
A love story unlike any other... Ostrikov crafts a narrative of conditional love that transcends language, physical appearance, and distance, even when nothing else remains.
A poignant, heartfelt tale delivered as a charming and oddly upbeat science fiction comedy, U Are the Universe is a terrific film.
Ukrainian filmmaker Pavlo Ostrikov finds the right ingredients for a genuinely affecting love story... its sparkling dialogue and inventive filmmaking will assure its place among cinephiles.
