🎬 Movie

Cinematographer Ivan Kuznetsov holds a movie camera that once belonged to his grandfather, a veteran of the Great Patriotic War. Through the same lens that witnessed Stalingrad and Berlin, he films modern-day Saint Petersburg. This 2025 documentary transforms archival reels into a living dialogue between generations, where each frame becomes a bridge between past and present. The director creates a unique visual palimpsest, layering historical footage onto contemporary streets, making buildings and monuments speak with the voices of a bygone era. It is an exploration of memory not as a museum artifact, but as a continuous process in which we all participate.
