The Shards

About the film

Spring 2022 turns for Masha into chain of unexpected farewells: her mom dies of cancer, her lover flees army conscription, everything including her own old self is falling apart. Her anger guides her to inner emigration to the local underground scene. Her way to cope with the grief is to fixate everything with her camera. This kaleidoscope of shards chronicles not only spirit of the time, but the director's personality crumbling against the backdrop of personal and global turmoil.
