Focal Distance
Fokusnoe rasstoyanie, Belarus, 2008, 24 min, Beta SP, Arts and Culture, Portrait, Youth Documentary
A lonely, aging photographer lives in a little town where the traces of the communist era are well-preserved. Love, loneliness, senility, sadness, tiredness, memory, reminiscences, offence… Life becomes black and white when the end is closer, when colors bleach; paper turns yellow and only in the memory faces and smiles are still bright and varied in colors.
