Kalush & Jerry Heil: Stiny

Teamed up with a production team in Poland for this cross-continental music video collab with Ukrainian pop stars Jerry Heil & KALUSH (Eurovision winner 2022). The video hit 3.5 million views on YouTube.

The song, Stiny (from Ukr. Walls), speaks to themes of nostalgia and the bittersweet passage of time. It’s about wanting to relive the past while accepting that it’s impossible to return to it. The lyrics reflect a longing for connection mixed with the painful realization that both the future and the self have evolved in ways that can’t be undone.

“The walls of home feel too tight now” — symbolizes displacement and emotional distance, something that resonates deeply with many Ukrainians, especially those displaced by war. Despite the separation, the narrator clings to memories. There's a yearning to return home, but with the understanding that everything around them has changed, leaving them feeling detached from the past they once knew.
