My Family and Other Clowns

Watch Trailer
2025 · 84 min Documentary
8.0 / 10 · TMDB

Alexey, a former circus performer, now paints fences in a residential district. His daughter Katya films it on her phone — the awkward pauses, conversations about the past that lead nowhere. Documentary filmmaker Anna Syomina observes a family where every member is a clown who has forgotten how to make even themselves laugh. The camera captures not the performance, but its backstage: rehearsals without an audience, makeup that doesn't wash off. This 2025 documentary explores the boundary between the personal and the public, between the role played in the ring and the one that remains at home. A story about preserving a family when the only thing that binds you is a shared past under the big top.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Anna Syomina employs an observational style; her camera rarely intervenes, creating a sense of eavesdropping. She captures unstaged gestures and intonations that build a portrait of dissolution.

What lingers is a slow, almost tactile immersion into a world where a profession becomes destiny. A quiet gem for those who appreciate documentary without pretension. — MovieFinder Editorial

On a rainy afternoon in the kitchen, when conversation flows of its own accord.
