Here is a short report from "Cherry Pierogi" – they’ve embarked on their first journey outside of Ukraine! The project’s author and director, Olha Havrylova, presented it at the Manchester Animation Festival (MAF). The event was organized by the UK/UA Animation Lab, a joint initiative of the incredible Linoleum Festival (Verlinska) and Skwigly Magazine (Wood).

In addition to "Cherry Pierogi," two other Ukrainian projects were also showcased: the short film "Frescoes of Memory" by Oleksandra Dzhyhanska and the series "Daylight Saving Time" by Iryna Sosimovych. The audience was attentive and engaged, and the Q&A session following the presentations was informal and lengthy. We were pleasantly surprised by the level of involvement in the discussion and the thoughtful suggestions regarding the sensitive topic of the Holodomor that came from the audience.

Of course, the conversations didn’t end with the presentation. We left richer for the new connections with amazing people. Overall, MAF is a wonderful event—more intimate compared to larger festivals, yet lively, accessible, and with a warm, almost family-like atmosphere. The ambiance and organization were top-notch, and Manchester has now become a new love of ours. The festival has ended, but for Cherry Pierogi, this is just the beginning!
