Everything we know about Olena Teliga is contained in the memories of her contemporaries — friends, girlfriends, siblings, like-minded people. About 40 poems, several journalistic articles and one semi-biographical story remain for us from her.
This beautiful young woman could have made a brilliant career in Europe: either in the dance troupe of the Prague theater, or in literature, or in the fields of enlightenment, or simply in social salons, where she was considered, according to the modern expression, "an icon style". She was compared to Lady Hamilton, Madame Pompadour and even Greta Garbo and considered to be "ahead of her time". Instead, she became one of the brightest figures of the Ukrainian resistance and died unconquered in Baby Yar. Many years have passed since the life of Olena Teliga and her siblings, and Ukraine still stands as a bone in the throat of imperial ambitions - in the center of Europe, an unbreakable shield between the well-fed West and the gluttonous East.
The story is based on the script of the full-length feature film "Olena Teliga. Unbelievable" and a four-episode series.
