The Green Serpent
Opis filmu
Opis oryginalny: rosyjski
Logline An introspective cinematic journey following the thin line between transcendental inspiration and bleak visions evoked by the spirit of vodka. Synopsis THE GREEN SERPENT is a journey into the depths of intoxication: drinking vodka as a transcendental experience. Bitten by the green snake, people enter into a twilight zone where the beauty of life becomes indistinguishable from a dark, devastating void and inspiration and destruction can equally form. During this cinematic trip through the Russian winterland we meet the actor Aleksandr Bashirov, the poet Mstislav Biserov and renowned physicist Nikolai Mikhailovich Budnev who speak about their relationship with vodka; the struggle against fear and pain and the pursuit of divine spirits its consumption awakens. THE GREEN SERPENT is introspection about drinking, a brusque Cinepoem not only for inebriated barflies, but for everyone driven by a desire for ecstasy in an otherwise ordinary life
