Daughters-Mothers

The doll is perhaps the most important toy in the life of any person. Why is the doll so important and why is the doll world so diverse? Why was the Scientific Research Institute of Toys created in the Soviet Union, by the way, the only one in the world? And why is it abolished now? What have we grown up to be and what will our children be like? Does a lot really depend on toys? On the example of one family, as well as with the help of collectors and artists, psychologists and teachers, documents and chronicles of those years, the film tries to answer these questions.

Illegal races, Street challenge, incomparable characters - a portrait of the era. Nobody argues how fashionable it is now, good or bad, This is chaos, creativity, adrenaline. The speed and speed of reaction is the manner of a free artist, not constrained by any framework and obligations. The film was shot in the MTV style that is so popular among young people now. Mikhail and his team made an almost documentary film. Not a single take in the studio, everything was filmed only on the streets of Moscow in real extreme conditions, without official permission, without special letters. This is nonsense for the capital. Feel real freedom, forget about the constraints, about the conventions imposed by the metropolis. Only forward.
