A wordless exploration of nostalgia during a painful return to our small homeland. Starting from the assumption that the feeling of nostalgia for childhood at an early age is inherent in his generation, the author decided that it was very important to represent this, without imposing the personal, but creating for the viewer the space of his own memories.

 


Vladislav Zaitsev from Penza, studied at VGIK in the non-fiction film directing workshop of A.V. Osipova (5th year). He is director and cinematographer of the film I Live in the Zoo (educational, 2021, nomination for the Laurel Award - best debut, participation in the festivals ArtDocFest, Flahertiana, KrymDok, We won together, VGIKfest, St. Anna).
