“The Date” is a very personal story for me. It opens unexpected prospects for a married couple on the verge of divorce to save the family. Actually, it is my effort to realise whether it is even possible in our crazy world. Also, it is the first-ever Belarusian film featuring a famous Belarusian rap band.
