Fifty Years Later

Ekaterina Bessonova / Czech Republic / 2018 / World Premiere / 4 min.


synopsis

A topical film created for the anniversary of the Warsaw pact occupation cleverly combines 3D animation and actual archival footage. The film’s main character is a Russian solder who looks back on the invasion and comes to a paradoxical conclusion of how his life could have been very different.

biography

Ekaterina Bessonova comes from the Russian city of Yoshkar-Ola. Currently she is a student of animation at FAMU, where she focuses primarily on 3D animation. She attracted interest already in her first year at the exhibition City City.
