Sketches About Freedom

In the episodes, the authors model situations based on the darkest forecasts of the development of mores and moods within the country. Violation of intimate space, privacy, encroachment on freedom of creativity, self–expression and just the right to life are just some of the symptoms of this disease. The "beautiful" Russia of the future in this reading is an inexorable regression, the rejection of personal space and total immersion in the new Middle Ages in the Sorokin style.

The Boy's Word: Blood on the Asphalt

In the late 1980s, when “perestroika” was taking place in the USSR and the era of the Soviet Union was about to collapse, life became unstable and very different. The 1980s brought not only freedom, but also waves of crime on the city streets. While some young people began to ‘grow up’ on the streets, others found it difficult to find their place in this unpredictable reality. Andrey, lives with his mother and five-year-old sister. He studies at a music school and often encounters street teenagers who harass him. To protect himself, Andrey makes friends with one of these teenagers, Marat, who introduces him to gang life. Youth groups fight for every piece of territory; they defend their right to live the life, even breaking laws and promises. The only thing that matters to them is the vows they make to their gang members-brothers, with whom they confront the violence and fears of the adult world.
