Donnez-Nous la Paix
Shot in Roscoff and Île-de-Batz, Bretagne, Kostrov and his companions move through the unknown landscape, in displacement. Their contours blur under his camera’s gaze – looking not at, but into, with and through. Captured briefly along the way, gestures and textures of the world are given physical presence, where the filmmaker’s antiwar sentiment finds its echo. The title comes from an inscription found on a cottage there — a message from another time, another context: the same plea.
