Kinder der Schlafviertel

PIERRE AND YOLANDE PERRAULT GRANT

Three young friends, seventeen-year-old punks, in a run-down tower block in the Moscow suburbs. Their parents are worried and at a loss to understand. The world of Vacha and his friends brims with vodka, endless conversations in entrance halls and corridors, but even more with music and poetry. “Children of the dormitory suburbs, divided in groups by the government. Grown up in the streets, the streets are our home. Factories in front of our windows.” (Tanzilit)
