POLISH TITLE: MOSKWA OD ZMIERZCHU DO ŚWITU

REPRESENTED BY KFF

The film is one of the five pictures included in the project entitled 'The World from Dawn Till Dusk'. Young filmmakers direct their cameras at the residents of Russia's capital portraying one day in the life of the metropolis. The picture of the city includes short visits to the underground, a police station, the immigrants from Afghanistan, a discotheque or even an Orthodox church. The characters represent a wide range of professions: from the blue collar worker to the journalist. The film was made under the artistic supervision of Maciej Drygas, Andrzej Musiał and Mateusz Werner.
