The film documents this story through the eyes of eight hosts from five rural guest houses throughout Moldova: Sergiu (Hanul lui Hanganu), Liuba (Vila Roz), Dan, Zaharia and Tatiana (Casa Veche), Ana (Gagauz Sofrasi), Olesea and Anatol (Eco-Resort Butuceni). On the unexpected front line of this humanitarian crisis, they immediately decided to open their guest houses, normally used for hosting tourists, to provide safe refuge and a welcoming smile to their Ukrainian guests.
The documentary is directed by Daniela Donici and Lucia Lupu with production by ANTRIM / Lulu Creative. Film image by Lucian Spฤtaru. It is supported by the National Inbound and Domestic Tourism Association of Moldova (ANTRIM) and Moldova Travel with the support of the EDGE Buy-in Moldova Competitiveness Transition Activity funded by USAID.
