Oleg Mavromatti: About what, in fact, the film – one word can not say. Probably about America. The idea was to show America differently. It's not Hollywood, it's a movie about vision and points of view. Quite unexpectedly, I made a film that American intellectuals understand. Now I am afraid of another: will the film be clear in Moscow? The culture is completely different. So, as filmed in Hollywood, can shoot any student, a very medium hand, without brains, and therefore independent party looking for another language. Painfully and strangely looking; there are some special forms that no one in Russia can understand. And of course, this is not about Lynch and Tarantino – they are only the top of the American movie iceberg, the lucky ones who got into the clip. close

The plot is not developed; in the film we see a man (he) and a woman (she) who, in fact, are neither connected nor familiar with each other; they casually met in hospital. "She" (Viktoria Tolstoganova) does not see that she is in danger in connection with her plan to use a tape with illegally made recordings as compromising evidence in court. "He" (Il'ia Shakunov, an actor of the Petersburg TYuZ) is a gay translator who, after the random meeting with her, is pursued by her image which frequently pops up in front of him. As a consequence, his relationship with a young boy no longer satisfies him. Both he and she lose sight of the meaning of life, because of their own inability to see others and to see love, as perception relies on proximity instead of distance. close

This film was shot in 1988. The main action takes place in a rock group's studio during the visit of a few acolytes from Theatre Theatre. It is all served up in connection with Fassbinder «s notion of Antitheatre. The theme of the “mad prince” in actors» improvisations intertwines with the fate of the director and of directing in general. The adventures of the spirit form the true tale of this film. We use only the single interior, the studio room where nothing happens aside from the pulsations of spirit. It comes to life here, and it rests, as if gaining new strength. The Mad Prince Fassbinder is, indeed, spirit. Only a free camera is capable of capturing this freedom. close

The anti-budget film Kado is a film permeated with Kafkaesque sentiments. Here, as in the stories of the famous writer, everything is built on absurdity, fear of the surrounding hostile world. This film is able to sow in the soul of the viewer a sense of anxiety, homelessness.
The main character of the film "Cado" is a lonely "white collar", an office plankton that attracts a gray and dull existence. Every day like his twin brother is like the day before. Dirty shabby apartment, ridiculous and boring paperwork, poor scrambled eggs for breakfast - hopeless everyday life, they have no end.
One day the hero wakes up and realizes that everything looks and happens differently, something has changed. Perhaps his inner self has come into conflict with nauseating reality. Now he is either half asleep, or half awake. The viewer cannot fully understand whether the main character died or simply moved to another, parallel world. Anxiety contributes to the open finale of the film. The genre of this film does not lend itself to unambiguous definition – it is fiction and grotesque, surrealism, bitter irony, a symbolic denunciation of the realities of modern society. close

The film "Nights full moon" shows the tendency of moral decay in society. The main character is torn apart by internal contradictions, leading him to the path of Evil. Bans on self-identification - philosophical, existential, sexual, and then permissiveness spawn a monster that is not aware of its true nature and genuine desires. Throughout the film-trilogy, the protagonist goes through a series of temptations that ruin his soul and lead, after all, to a madhouse. In a general sense, the film allegorically shows the tragic path of the Russian lumpen intellectual, lost between the past and the present, not finding the strength to accept and comprehend the unexpected changes that happened in our country twenty years ago. In the global sense - the tragic circle of Russian history. close

Two friends, Mark and Nikita, play HO, paying attention to the crosses and zeros around them or forming them on their own. Moreover, one of them is the zero and the other is the cross. close
