A musical video featuring the People's Artist of Ukraine Nini Matvienko. The film features a number of well-known and little-known Ukrainian folk and author's songs performed by a wonderful singer. The video sequence harmoniously complements the musical part of the film. In some places, the video sequence can be safely attributed to art-house, some scenes simply breathe with rural magic and ancient folk customs, intertwined with Christian symbols, as is still customary in the outback.

TITLE OF FILM:
Rusalchin tizhden / Русалчин тиждень (Ukrainian)
= Русальная неделя (Russian)
= "Mermaid week" (English)

And what is that? Translated excerpt from https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%97%D0 ... 0%BB%D1%8F :

Spoiler: Rusal, or Trinity week (beginning with the Trinity) among the southern and eastern Slavs is the core of the entire Trinity-Kupala-Petrine cycle. It completes a very long period associated in the mythology of the spring cycle with the stay on earth, among the living, the souls of the ancestors. On Spiritual Saturday , a commemoration for the dead, common to all Orthodox Slavs, is celebrated, symbolizing the departure of souls to their places of eternal refuge [87] . It was considered the time of stay on earth of mermaids who emerged from the water after the Ascension . On Mermaid Week, rituals were usually performed related to farewell to spring: “Taking out the Trinity birch ”, “Seeing off the mermaid”, “Funeral of Kostroma”, “ Driving a horse ”, “Seeing off spring”. In the calendar of the Balkan and Eastern Slavs (especially in the Ukrainian-Belarusian region), the time comes for “mortgaging” or “unclean” dead (mainly dead girls and young children), appearing on earth from the “other world” for a short period of Mermaid Week [88] . This is what internally motivates the chrononym "Rusalchin Great Day", meaning the period of the temporary resurrection of mermaids (cf. another name for mermaid Thursday - Nava Trinity, which also has commemorative semantics) [87] . In Polissya the whole week was dedicated to the drowned [89] . At the end of the Mermaid Week, the mermaids leave the earth and return to the "other world", which is celebrated in some places with the rite of "seeing off (removing, expelling) the mermaid." In other places, mermaids "return" to the "other world" to Agrafena Kupalnitsa or Fevroniya Mermaid [87] [90] .
