Film director Oleksandr Muratov, a Dovzhenko's trainee at the time, claims he was the last Ukrainian who saw the great film director before his death in 1956.
Inspired by Dovzehnko's personality, film director Slavik Bihun made this film preparing for his fiction film inspired by Dovzhenko's story "Mother" (1949).
The film ends with a sequence shot in the garden planted by Dovzhenko himself at the territory of the Dovzhenko Film Studios in Kyiv, Ukraine.
