back from St. Petersburg
I'm back in Moscow after a week in St. Petersburg. Michelle and I were accredited to the Message to Man documentary film festival. We didn't see one Russian documentary that we liked. This genre appears to be completely undeveloped here. The redeeming film of the festival was Czech Dream (Vít Klusák and Filip Remunda, Czech Republic, 2004). The filmmakers tracked the creation of a brand and a marketing campaign that drew hundreds of people to their fictional supermarket.
Here, Michelle and I are goofing around in a park near Dom Kino. I'm trying to finish Mayor Luzhkov's painfully dull manifesto for a Times profile piece.
