Creative kit
Known in certain circles Russian writer Daniil Kharms was born at the very beginning of the twentieth century, and his literary activity fell at the time of the formation of a new Russian culture – Soviet. In those days, there were a great many different currents and trends, often difficult to understand ordinary people. Harms himself said that his creative method is "modernism, mindlessness, nonsense, alogism, grotesque, black humor, absurdity." From this point of view, it is possible to evaluate the cartoon, shot as an illustration of one of his stories.
When it began to rain, flooding the horizon, on the road with deep puddles went on the way two guys met: Petya and Vova, calling themselves Merry guys. Petya, wearing a warm cotton coat, carried a violin under his arm, and Vova just walked next to him. The abstract landscape on the left side of the road strangely repeated at some intervals, but the Merry guys did not notice this: they kept walking and walking past the conventional houses outlined by horizontal and vertical lines, staring at transparent flying birds, and remained silent.
Behind the barrier, they met the Smallest Man in the World, who viewed everyone through binoculars in reverse. Once they met, the three of them agreed to travel together and walked and walked again until they came across Big Man sleeping sweetly along the road because he couldn’t fit across.
The Big Man had original tattoos on his arm, and on his chest, the hearts gouged out and the word “mother.” The Big Man who woke up was also not averse to traveling in the company of the Merry Guys, and they were already on the road as four...
Execution of a plan
Unusual transparent graphics of the black and white screen of the cartoon, strange images of the characters and the illogicality of their behavior, abstract and conditional elements of the surrounding world and much more, act in this film on the principle of creative installations of Kharms. They are incomprehensible, but funny and, according to those who wish, can be interpreted by each viewer in their own way, according to their tastes and preferences. Methods and ways to understand this extraordinary cartoon can be as many as the audience. close

As with so many early films by Sokurov, this film has two dates: the first is the date of its creation (the film was then banned), the second is the date of the final edition and legal public screening. The film consists of German and Soviet archive footage of the World War II — to be exact, from the end of the war. An attempt to make a large–scale documentary on this subject had been undertaken in the Soviet cinema of the 1960s: the film — “Ordinary Fascism” — by the outstanding Soviet film–maker Mikhail Romm had become a classic retrospective investigation of fascism. But Sokurov uses the expressive power of the documentary image in an absolutely different way. He does not amass materials for a large–scale picture of Nazi crimes. close
