When Yaroslaw leaves his Canadian home to spend a short holiday in Ukraine searching for family heirlooms his grandparents buried during the Second Wold War, he has no inkling his personal exploration will draw him into a dangerous quest for Europe's greatest treasure, or that he will be caught up in the swirling intrigues of Ukraine's "Orange Revolution."
Think Hollywood action-adventure film Romancing the Stone, with a dash of a young 'Indiana Jones' thrown in. Except what takes Yaroslaw's Treasure beyond the action, lightness, and romance into greater depths are the political issues it raises."
- Myroslava Oleksiuk, film-maker, editor of ePoshtaInternet Weekly |
