Recorded as Stated by Me 2024

A documentary featuring fully AI-translated voices. Against the backdrop of post-mobilization Russia (November 2022 - February 2023), a man embarks on an introspective journey. Grappling with major turning points in his country, personal demons, collective trauma, decolonization discourse and Soviet nostalgia, he immerses in Petersburg's "underground". Lost and seeking answers, the hero is dancing in an abandoned Soviet House of Culture, experiencing strange street theater, engaging in political debates at a bar, attending a poetic evening at a nonconformist art center, visiting a philosophical cafe and old rock club "Kamchatka". His journey alternates between memorials and these venues, where he reflects on the country's history while searching for personal and collective meaning.
