A conversation of Tetiana Kalytenko, Kateryna Sergatskova and Borys Filonenko about the comics of our days. About relatable, touching and fascinating stories that influenced their professional path and personal experience of the present. They will also touch upon the connection between comics and other arts – plastic arts, literature, cinema and animation. Comics are not separated from the modern culture streams, and we will try to delve into them.
