Violet Country
Director
Little girl Stesha lives in a country house. She is isolated from the outside world and immersed in the world of games and fantasies. Her drawings reflect the inner world - the image of Paradise, which slips away as she grows up.
Gorbachev. Heaven
Camera Operator
An immersion into the intimacy of Mikhail Gorbachev, the last leader of the USSR. The architect of perestroika and glasnost, who was praised in the West but reviled in his own country, still combative despite his advanced age, loneliness and illness, offers his personal and political testament.
Hard to Be a Friend
Director
Stesha, an observant and artistic 3-year-old, turns her parents' conversations and daily routines into a game. She cares after her plushie Basik and passes the lessons of life onto him. Their naive performance allows a glimpse into the magical process of growing up and taking responsibility.
Shadows of Your Childhood
Screenplay
Our house immerses into the silence of the night, is covered with long shadows, plays with occasional flashes of the warm flame of a kerosene lamp. Darkness for little Stesha turns out to be a tool for the discovery of another world, sometimes scary, sometimes fascinating. Fragments of vague memories, voices, flashes of light – the precious feelings of early childhood that remain with us forever.
