🎬 Movie

Alexandra, a young artist from Saint Petersburg, faces a choice: to stay in Russia or to leave. Her camera captures not only conversations with friends and colleagues in her studio but also the silence of an emptying apartment, final walks along familiar streets. The documentarian follows the protagonist for a year, asking no direct questions, merely observing her internal struggle through the details of daily life, unfinished sketches, and pauses in dialogue. The film becomes a chronicle not so much of a political decision but of an existential fracture within a generation, captured in the trembling light of St. Petersburg's courtyards and the hesitant movements of a hand trying to sketch a reality that is slipping away.
