Director's Statement

I couldn't bear the idea that even today, people in power and rulers of cities exercise the same practices to a certain social phenomenon labelled as a problem, that were used 60 years ago. This is the reason why I've chosen to make this short, using 35mm film for the first time in my life. It was made to warn people, that it isn't the right path!
