Propala hramota

I completely agree with the previous comment. This movie is one of the rare landscapes of Ukrainian life in the XVIII century. This part of our story is so great and interesting but there are very few movies on the subject. The movie serves as a bright example of great variety of Ukrainian characters and capability of Ukrainians to make such a wonderful piece of art. Beautiful Ukrainian language, gorgeous landscapes of Ukrainian nature, Ukrainian everyday life, Ukrainian songs and, at last, Cossacks - brave, strong, very simple and seeking the truth. The actors played brilliantly. And while the scenario differs from the original Gogol's story every word is in the right place.I hope that one day that movie will be translated into English and shown to people of other countries.

P.S. It would be better to name the movie "Propala gramota" according to the Ukrainian name of the movie, because "Propavshaya" is a transliteration of the Russian word.
