March, march in the hole!

Film on how to stop watching TV and start living

The Orthodox activist crawling out of the baptismal hole with a cry: "Jesus was warm!" President, talking with a two -meter pike about love. Oil, drugs, TV stories ... Many will receive the film "Lyncet", the new project of Andrei Silvestrov, for blasphemy, protest and satire. Meanwhile, neither God -fee nor tyrannoye is there. But a lot of funny and sad.

“Lyncation is, if you think about it,” says Sylvestrov, “a portal from one world to another. From reality to virtuality and vice versa. The play was created by Andrei Rodionov and Katya Troepolskaya a little over a year ago, when our country ducked from reality into virtuality and the TV finally became our everything. This is also a kind of baptism, initiation, and the text recorded it. And now we are already behind that line. ”

The film is filmed as if behind the line. It is literally crowded with madness and madmen. And they all speak in verses. Quote is a pleasure:

“The singer and composer Gazmanov Oleg plunged into the hole for many years. He was inspired by Angelina Vovk and Gennady Malakhov, the polar wolf ... Bard and actor Nikita Dzhigurd from the Epiphany bathing are arranged by the show. And those who live at the Odintsovo pond will not forget baptism in January last year. So, the hole in Dzhigurd called a black square, and God descended to the earth. The Odintovites looked at the dance of the opa -op, performed by the actor and bard. ”

In fact, this is a sniffed broadcast. And against her background, four surreal stories unfold. The activist artist (Denis Yasik) in a diving suit is rapidly making the way from performance to a crazy house. President (he is played by director Dmitry Brusnikin ) complains to a pike to loneliness. The disgraced oligarch ( Mikhail Efremov ) throws money into the ice hole and hides in the forests from riot police. Freenser-alcoholic (Andrey Rodionov) pulls his beloved woman out of the hole.

“In relation to baptism,” explains the director, “all these worldly passions are ridiculous. The scale is not comparable: the true Christian mystery and a miserable clowning, the bustle of mummers, politicians, pop stars, artists and other ones were seized. You can emerge from all this bad whore, but only on one condition-if you really love someone, for real. Woman, God, homeland. And without love, there is nothing to try. ”

The premiere is scheduled for baptism. A month remains. God forbid that by that time the film has lost its relevance. But there is very little chance of this.
