In the video, they showed footage from Ukrainian cities and Ukrainian mothers evacuating their own children from the war and going to defend the Motherland themselves.
. Although the song does not say a word about the war, many people began to associate the song with mother Ukraine. Moreover, society began to call it the anthem of our war! But if Stephanie is now the anthem of our war, I would like it to be the anthem of our victory, “said band leader Oleg Psyuk.
The Kalush Orchestra stressed that the film is based on real events during the military aggression in Ukraine in 2022.
The director of the video is Max Ksyonda, the producer is Stanislav Smirnov.
