Introduction by Ted Landrum, Architect and Poet.
In the back alleys of Moscow, forgotten treasures lurk: Utopian buildings, built in the 1920s in the spirit of Russian constructivism. The film follows three Muscovites who are struggling with the buildings’ heritage. One citizen fights for the preservation of her own house and the old printing factory next door. Donatas wants to live with his friends in an artist community. Vsevolod wants to preserve an architectural monument yet has to rebuild it.
