A short video featuring a romantic Ukrainian landscape, accompanied by a poignant soundtrack, turns out to be a television commercial selling off pieces of land. Here, strangely, the rhetoric of capitalism fuses with that of national heritage. The video is promoting the beauty and value of ‘the land of our ancestors’ and could turn into a successful marketing campaign, if concepts and understanding of ownership and place will not be radically rethought.Music: Oleksandr Kokhanovsky
