“I would like to show all the places, but we had very little time. But the creative team decided to make exactly these points. If it were possible, we would have shown three minutes, and I think that even that would not have been enough, because there is something to show, there is something to tell, our country is diverse and beautiful,” said Svetlana Solovyova, a representative of the production company

The main character of the video was a graduate of the Ukrainian talent show “The Voice. Children" Nastya Baginskaya, who performed a cover version of Shakira's song "Zootropolis". According to the author of the idea, Gennady Kurochka, the video sequence and the song should hit the emotions of the guests of the competition: “We focused specifically on emotions. The idea was that foreign guests who watch this video would make an emotional decision.”
