​
SYNOPSIS:
​
Like grass that reclaims the land, the sacred and the profane infiltrate the cracks of the gray Soviet walls.
The splendor of ancient times shines through the darkness of magic. A slow and silent counter-revolution whose weapon is color and whose enemy is realism.
​
Come erba che si riprende il territorio, sacro e profano s’infiltrano fra le crepe dei grigi muri sovietici. Lo splendore di un tempo antico brilla tra l’oscurità della magia. Una controrivoluzione lenta e silenziosa che ha per arma il colore e per nemico il realismo.
