How does art survive in a time of oppression? During the Soviet rule artists who stay true to their vision are executed, sent to mental hospitals or Gulags. Their plight inspires young Igor Savitsky. He pretends to buy state-approved art but instead daringly rescues 40,000 forbidden fellow artist's works and creates a museum in the desert of Uzbekistan, far from the watchful eyes of the KGB. Though a penniless artist himself, he cajoles the cash to pay for the art from the same authorities who are banning it. Savitsky amasses an eclectic mix of Russian Avant-Garde art. But his greatest discovery is an unknown school of artists who settle in Uzbekistan after the Russian revolution of 1917, encountering a unique Islamic culture, as exotic to them as Tahiti was for Gauguin. They develop a startlingly original style, fusing European modernism with centuries-old Eastern traditions. close

This journey was made in search of the true ancestral homeland of the Hungarians, despite the fact that Europeans were forbidden to enter the city at that time. But the traveler was helped by the envoy of the Bukhara Emir Mirzo (Ato Mukhamedzhanov), who allowed Vambery to inspect the mosques and palaces of "sacred Bukhara", and also showed various creations of ancient culture and brought to the book depository of the emirs, because he understood that East and West cannot be divided and it is necessary to look for ways of rapprochement. close
