Sergey Kolosovsky

Exiled director Nikita Lavretski (played by Belarusian director Sergey Kolosovski) strives to reunite with his wife across European borders. Reminiscing about the home he had to leave, he wonders whether he is stuck reliving his past forever.

When rising rapper Oli finally meets his online collaborator Sasha, their weekend of hanging out turns from sweet to painfully awkward to terrifying. An underground live gig, a strange encounter with a goth girl, and finally a literal descent into hell are all captured on grainy VHS tape.

We are not talking about Belarusian cinema - we are creating it! The boring official cinema of Belarus is being replaced by alternate cinema from such directors as Ilja Bozhko, Artem Lobach, Sergey Kolosovsky, cinema filled with new meanings and vivid images.
