1
00:00:10,1 --> 00:00:11,7
I remember the summer I spent

2
00:00:11,7 --> 00:00:13,7
with my grandparents in the countryside.

3
00:00:14,9 --> 00:00:18,3
They lived in a small village in the south of Ukraine.

4
00:00:28,0 --> 00:00:31,2
Actually, I remember every summer there.

5
00:00:36,0 --> 00:00:39,6
Actually, I want to remember everything,

6
00:00:39,6 --> 00:00:40,7
but I can’t.

7
00:01:27,3 --> 00:01:30,2
In my memory, the house is always full of people.

8
00:01:31,5 --> 00:01:34,1
My cousin is two years older than me.

9
00:01:40,9 --> 00:01:42,8
I try to keep the memories

10
00:01:42,8 --> 00:01:45,0
but I can't hold on to them.

11
00:01:48,6 --> 00:01:51,2
Memories fade with time

12
00:01:51,2 --> 00:01:52,8
Or were they always so blurred.

13
00:01:56,5 --> 00:01:59,5
Somehow I can clearly remember the morning 

14
00:01:59,5 --> 00:02:01,7
when my cousin moved to Germany with her family.

15
00:02:03,1 --> 00:02:06,5
Everyone was sad and we couldn't understand why.

16
00:02:08,5 --> 00:02:11,3
On the way home from the station, I saw the most

17
00:02:11,3 --> 00:02:14,6
beautiful dawn that has remained in my memory until now.

18
00:02:23,6 --> 00:02:25,6
People also fade like memories.

19
00:02:27,3 --> 00:02:32,6
I still spent every summer without my cousin there.

20
00:02:32,6 --> 00:02:35,8
Played outside,

21
00:02:40,8 --> 00:02:44,1
spent time with grandpa.

22
00:02:44,1 --> 00:02:45,6
I loved the most when he was telling me stories from

23
00:02:45,6 --> 00:02:47,5
his childhood.

24
00:02:47,5 --> 00:02:50,1
Found new friends.

25
00:02:51,9 --> 00:02:55,3 
Back then, it felt like it would always stay that way.

26
00:02:57,0 --> 00:02:59,7
The last time I saw grandpa, I could feel 

27
00:03:59,7 --> 00:03:02,4
the touch and warmth of his embrace for long time after.

28
00:03:06,0 --> 00:03:10,0
He died in 2007.

29
00:03:12,3 --> 00:03:13,3
I moved.

30
00:03:13,3 --> 00:03:14,9
Many things have changed.


31
00:03:18,2 --> 00:03:20,4
But under the endless sky there

32
00:03:20,4 --> 00:03:22,7
I'm still small as back then.

33
00:03:23,4 --> 00:03:27,5
The memories are passed on and on and on.

34
00:03:29,0 --> 00:03:31,0
Sometimes they are the only things that

35
00:03:31,0 --> 00:03:33,1
connect us to our family or culture.

36
00:03:35,3 --> 00:03:38,1
Our own invisible heritage.
