Experiencing Interruptions?

ZAPOVIT

Maxim is creating a project that offers people the chance to leave a true legacy — their final words captured on camera. His idea is a time capsule where everyone can preserve a piece of themselves for future generations. To promote his studio, Maxim decides to make a film about his project, but the process turns into a series of absurd situations. Unintentionally, the shadows of his own conflict with his father also make their way into the footage, adding an unexpected layer of depth to the concept.

"Zapovit" is a chamber dramedy about memory, legacy, and the prose of life.

Director Biography - Anton Proza

My name is Anton, and I was born in the village of Oleksiivka in the Kharkiv region. My father worked as a car painter in an auto repair shop, and my mother was a school administrator. In my childhood, I lacked the opportunity to discover myself due to limited perspectives and access to new opportunities. However, this taught me to value every experience and strive for growth.

For many years, I worked in marketing, where I gained skills in strategic planning, team management, and performance analysis. This experience helped me structure my ideas and bring them to life.

Today, I work as a director and screenwriter, creating content, commercials, and music videos. In my projects, I aim to combine real stories, emotions, and creativity so that each piece leaves a lasting impression on the audience.
