No More Fear

Directing: Svetlana Fyodorova

Synopsis

A young, separated couple meet again for a film. In a small house by a lake they perform something that could be daily life: chopping wood, frying meatballs, arguing about minced meat, heating the oven, swimming, looking at the water and playing harmonica. Both of them are HIV positive. From now on everything is related to thoughts of finitude and death: drifting clouds, wind in the blades of grass, spider webs in the twigs, every word, every glance. However, Oles and Alexandra know why they are being filmed. Self-mockingly they become the protagonists of their own story, and in so doing they discard some of their burden. But at night by the open fire their facades of self-protecting coolness break. What remains are helplessness, fear and love.
