MOVIE
The First Cold
5.51996
An attempt to express the relationship between space and the ability to reflect it. The result of these relations can be considered the non-representational nature of space, as a tangible form, and the tendency of space to have consciousness. We are talking about "inward-directed" vision and "outward-directed" vision. Hence the abandonment of normal voice acting in favor of the aesthetics of silent cinema; on the audio track you will only hear the recorded crackle of a film projector and the quiet off-screen conversations of some people. The film is based on Andrei Platonov's story "The Potudan River", the film adaptation of which for Edward Shelganov, as well as for Alexander Sokurov, became a debut in cinema.

The First Lad
5.31959
A gem from Paradjanov's early oeuvre is a musical agitation film or a romantic comedy, made by the young director under the guidance of Alexander Dovzhenko and set in the immense fields of the collectivised Ukraine. The social realism is replaced by colourful, convivial and dancing shots of the “Pabieda” (Victory) kolkhoz, where peasant women sing in the fields, and boys march with banners glorifying revolution. Against this backdrop, intense romantic feelings have reached a climactic stage; tailor Sidor Sidorovich, farmer Jushka and soldier Danila Petrovich all dote on the fair-haired Odarka. It is Jushka and Danila who engage in overt hostility; the initial “gentlemen’s” contest turns into an outright confrontation, resulting in miserable Jushka being increasingly more desperate and scorned by the villagers.
