Hrytsko Chubai is a genius of Ukrainian poetry, a connoisseur of literature, art and music and the brightest representative of Lviv underground culture of late 60s early 70s. The documentary "Chubai. Speaking again" is made in the innovative genre of a theatre production. The action takes place in Hrytsko's basement workshop. The journey through the film is leads by the Ukrainian poet Serhiy Zhadan and features Hrytsko's family and friends. They share their reminisces, tell stories and read his poetry. Video projection onto the basement walls expands boundaries and brings the audience into the time and space portrayed.

At the heart of the plot is a relationship between a maid Vlada Koza and Fredo Lagana – a bigwig in Cosa Nostra, an Italian mafia clan. Fredo has been recently released from prison and is having a hard time navigating the modern world around. He lost control over his business, and his family has nothing but trouble. Vlada becomes a secret Ukrainian ingredient in Fredo’s success, for both getting back the control over his organization and fixing his relationships with his kids.

Don Fredo’s eldest son – brutish Luca, dreams to continue in his father’s line of work, but he lacks a knack for it. The youngest son Gianni, conversely, does not want to get involved in crime, and no wonder – he has got a software engineering degree in the US. His daughter Francesca is stubborn, rebellious, and has a modern outlook on life. She tries to ignore the familial history, which irritates her father greatly. The entire Lagana family lost touch with each other, and Vlada is going to help the whole family to settle disputes and understand each other once again.
