Moskatchka
Synopsis
Using tableau-like takes of different places of the Muscovite suburb (Moskatchka), the poor quarter of the Latvian capital Riga, the film shows fragments of the choreography of life and combines them to form a picture of reality. Without making any comments, the camera observes the people’s behaviour. Moskatchka is a sacral, poetic act of documentation which succeeds in grasping life in its shocking simplicity and continual fleetingness.
