ONE DAY I WISH TO SEE YOU HAPPY

by Maryna Nikolcheva

synopsis

In the quiet of their home, filmmaker Maryna Nikolcheva documents her husband Max as he drifts through a midlife crisis. Once celebrated for his art, Max now edits commercials he can’t stand, finding meaning only in the slow, obsessive restoration of a battered old car. Through the lens of Maryna’s camera, we witness the small victories, frustrations, and tender moments that make up their shared life.
