Here, she recounts Germany conquering Ukraine in the second world war. She brings calm, then conflict. A couple on a bench become a woman's face; a peaceful walkway becomes a conflagration; a weeping widow morphs into an obelisk for an unknown soldier. Simonova looks like some vengeful Old Testament deity as she destroys then recreates her scenes - with deft strokes, sprinkles and sweeps she keeps the narrative going. She moves the judges to tears as she subtitles the final scene "you are always near".
That was amazing.

If by cops you mean Seth Rogen and Bill Hader and by your house you mean on a coming of age comedy directed by Greg Mottola and starring Jonah Hill and Michael Cera, then yes, you were doing just that.
