When we returned from a trip to Russia in 1990, armed with our Super8 cameras, Yann Beauvais and myself decided to share our images and make a four-handed film. The result is a twin screen projection using our Super8 footage mixed in with archival material from the 60s and 80s and also a sprinkling of Russian classic such as Vertov and Einstein. The soundtrack is composed of various elements: street recordings, Russian music of all kinds, and excerpts of Lenin speeches.
