Mariupol, 7’

Director: Yevgen Nikiforov

 

Mariupol is a town with one of the richest and diverse collections of Soviet monumental mosaics in Ukraine. Do locals consider their mosaics to be decorations of the town/district/building/factory and do they realize their art value? Could they compare themselves today to the people pictured in mosaics? After all, the leading plot of any monumental Soviet panel picture was life and work of a ‘typical’ citizen.
