"LIFE ON SHREDS"


Production of PoZitiv Film Studio, Cinematography service Ministry of culture of Russian Federation, 2003

About museums of Caucasian Mineral Waters region, Stavropol region.

When one hears the word "Caucasus" he immediately remembers the stories of Lev Tolstoy or Alexander Pushkin. Many people know the Caucasus due to the novels and poems of Mikhail Lermontov - it enough to remember Mtsyri to imagine all the manliness and strength of the mountaineers. And just in the museums of the Caucasian Mineral Waters one can know about this region - the most interesting place in the world.
A Russian man always associates the Caucasus with a war. And always it is a distant war. Let it be far away, somewhere at a distance - and not here! All is quiet here. One can be joyful and arrange the balls and the dinners. And we don't want to know about the other things!
However, is a common person guilty in the wreckage of his country? And how is it to live on its shreds?
You can't make an omelet without breaking eggs. And in the Caucasus we have a lot to break...
