Yulian Dorosh's film "Near the Sources of Folk Art" was shot in Kosiv region between 1963 and 1971. The film, done mainly on black-and-white, but with color inserts, tells out the masters of folk crafts of the Hutsul region. The film is dedicated "To the memory of Lev Dolynskyi and Danylo Fihol - my childhood friends." In the credits of the film it is clearly indicated that the author of the film is Yulian Dorosh and the film was shot in Kosiv region and Lviv in 1965-1971. There is no sound track on film stock. Documentary was rediscovered in March 2020. Since no later films of Yulian Dorosh have been found, there is every reason to believe that this film was the last in his cinematic career.
"What is most powerfully effective in FALL is the extraordinary sophistication of DeWitt's visual techniques, his graphic eye, and his complex designs. Because each unit of the exposition is so painstakingly conceptualized and nurtured, an audience is afforded a unique kind of purview on the elements as they are reconstituted in the more complex overlays. Thus the early, Magritte-like compositions of eye and sky establish basis for later more complicated efforts .... Color changes worked on given images (the bird, the sky) avoid the oversimplifications of hues/cues. Certain effects, as when clouds pass through the falling body which is outlined in flaming orange, can only be described as awesome. ... [A] work of immense dedication and exceptional skill." – John Fell
