The Game in the Trash

Krug II Studio theater works with special artists-they are sure that they can be independent and talented. Daily long rehearsals and turning their features into stage virtues are a difficult process, but the results are worth it: in 2014, Krug II won the Golden mask award in the "Experiment"category. Now the theater has decided to touch on the theme of ecology in a large-scale performance "Wrong things": on the stage, 30 people will turn into a dump. Does it have value?

Invitation to the Ball: Victims of the Russian Napoleon

A documentary about Oleg Sokolov, an associate Professor at St. Petersburg state University, who killed a graduate student, Anastasia Eshchenko. In the film, for the first time, Sokolov's previously silent victims — his former girlfriends and students, as well As Anastasia's relatives-spoke up. The film was created as part of the non-fiction cycle "Born killers", which tells about the most high-profile Russian crimes, in which still not all the circumstances are clear to the end.

The Scar of the Earth

Macha Ovtchinnikova, author of the film, follows the tracks of her great-great-aunt in Kyiv while her mother tells the story of the aunt’s death, revealing a dramatic episode of the Holocaust: “In my great-great-mother’s home, a little black-and-white picture represented deserted hill covered with dry grass. A little black cross traced on the photograph indicated the approximate place where her sister Esfir was buried with her family.

Our Album From Theresienstadt

Children will always be children. To be a kid means to love life and create, despite everything that might be happening around. This Russian documentary short is stylized as a children’s album made at the Theresienstadt concentration camp — here’s the plan of our camp, and here are the drawings made by my friends. This story carries a powerful emotional charge, similar to Anne Frank’s diary — both works are naïve but powerful thanks to their childishness.

The Nature of Creativity

"The film is a kaleidoscope" of the opinions of its nine main characters - the greatest modern musicians, who almost confessedly talk about the most important for them, the most subtle things seriously and jokingly: about what is the gift of creativity, about the origin of "this" in a person, about how "this" is given or acquired, about where it goes, about individual and collective creativity, about rhythm and pause, about interaction with the viewer, with the world, about where "it" comes from in the end... "Film-mosaic", "film-orchestra", where everyone has their own unique voice, character, their own individual path, worthy of many films about him, but all this, surprisingly, is composed into a single voluminous statement, woven from monologues, confirmed by the author's music of the film's characters... And it all started in the Cultural Center "ART'ERIA Club", at the crossroads of all types of Art.

Mushroom Country

According to statistics, every third Russian in the summer-autumn season becomes a real mushroom picker. And we are not looking for mushrooms for food, but because we love to do it, because for many it is a real passion called "silent hunting". At the same time, many mushroom pickers do not even know what these unique creatures of nature are, appearing and disappearing completely suddenly. This amazing, third kingdom of wildlife is still largely a mystery, even for scientists.

Soiga

The village of Soiga was founded by monks 400 years ago. At the beginning of the twentieth century, deforestation was organized in the Arkhangelsk region. In the 1950s, a narrow-gauge railway was built to transport timber to the Severnaya Dvina River. Now the village of Soiga is surrounded by swamps and is located 38 kilometers from the nearest highway. After the reduction of the forest fund, financial support for the road and the settlement stopped. The only way to get there is by a narrow - gauge railway, which has existed there since 1958. For about 40 years, local residents and the locomotive driver Boris Petrovich Skumin have maintained the road in good condition.
