A young girl tells her parents that she is pregnant and wants to get rid of the baby. The girl’s mother supports her decision, but the father of the family stands up against it. He condemns his wife for the frivolity with which she manages lives. Thus, unexpected news turns the family environment upside down, resurrecting old resentments and claims, exposing the truth of pure love.
IVAN SMIRNOV: On this project I worked as the second camera operator, editing director and did color grading (the latter was especially difficult for me). The film was shot within two nights in a small country-house by a minimum crew. It was originally planned that the young girl would be the leader in the narrative: the script and storyboard were made to fit this idea. However, after a rough cut - it became clear that the central character of the story is the father, played by Mikhail Safronov. The whole picture had to be reassembled to focus viewer's attention on him. This change entailed great difficulties due to the lack of material with Mikhail - all of these resulted in grainy image in several frames and other minor aberrations. I also want to point out the complexity of the chosen theme for the short debut - the relationship between parents and children in a family, and the life-affirming "love conquers all" like a common thread running through the whole picture. Additionally, I would like to thank the director - Elena Mishutina - for the trust shown to me during this work.
