Synopsis

Russia. My hometown. Peeling off wallpapers. Grandparents’ flat. Now my parents live here. Once or twice a year I come to visit them. Like my mother says, “for parents, you always stay children”, and there is truth in it. I wonder and attempt being present. » A dive into the past and a reflection through the present.
