The Merciful Soul (1987)

The protagonist of the film is the director's fellow villager Dmytro Fedorivskyi, nicknamed Mytia Karakhanchyk. He is a simple man - a farm loader who transports milk to the factory in the district, but he has so much humanity and warmth in him. He would bring medicine to someone from the district, buy some groceries for someone, or shovel snow near a widow's house. He was truly a merciful soul for many elderly people in his village.
