Part I: The New Lyricism or Nostalgia for Grand Style | <<<
Lyudmila Gorlova films wedding parties on Vorobiovy Mountain, which is where the newly wed of Moscow traditionally visit. While the "actors" change, the banal scenario of actions remains the same - they drink champagne from the bottle, make souvenir photographs, dance to accordion music and kiss to their friend's cries of "bitter!". Each of the newly-weds treat their role in a slightly different and personal manner while the overall sincerity and spontaneity remain unchanged. They all believe (or want to believe) that they participate in this performance for the last time.
