Pismo v Ameriku (S)

The short is made in a typical Muratova style that merges surrealism and reality into a mesmerizing act full of understatement and metaphor. Some trivia: this is nominally Muratova's first short. However, she herself considers it her fourth - she prefers to think of her Three Stories as three short films instead of a single feature. The film was made with no budget whatsoever - all Muratova was given were the camera and the film stock. None of the actors were paid. The rumor has it that the film was shot in Muratova's own apartment.
