Boris Linkov

Local Time

An experimental short film in which the authors, without resorting to synchrons, managed to convey the atmosphere of one of the provincial Russian cities.

Threshold

The film is the impression of the film's authors, obtained from meeting people who live in villages located along the railway line in the Novgorod region. Trains do not run on this road. Bread is delivered only once a week.

Postscript

One of the first accidents of the glasnost era - the crash of the Moscow-Leningrad passenger train - which became known throughout the country, occurred on August 16, 1988. Without setting out the tasks of investigating the causes of the disaster in which 32 people died, the film addresses the human side of this tragedy . The survivors remember how they got on this train, how they lost loved ones, about the psychological consequences of the disaster for them personally.
