The problem of climate, global warming, climate catastrophes has recently come to one of the first places not only in information programs, but also in political statements and in discussions at economic forums. Questions of "weather" in the most general sense of the word today excite millions of people from ordinary citizens to world leaders. Meanwhile, this topic is rather “young”, talk about the coming climate apocalypse is no more than four decades old. But why has this topic suddenly become so relevant? Where does this general hysteria about the climate, which is growing every year, come from? Is humanity really leading the planet (and itself in the first place) to inevitable death by its activities?
Who will pay for the climate?

Their names were Nadezhda, Alexandra and Galina. They were from Belarus and Russia. They were partisans and actively fought against the fascist invaders in their country before they were arrested by the Germans. It was the beginning of hell. After horrific torture and an endless journey in boxcars, they arrive in Thiel, a quiet little town in Lorraine. It houses a concentration camp, a crematorium, and an iron mine converted into a V1 rocket factory. Hundreds of women work like slaves at the bottom of the mine. Many of them will never return home. But 37 women managed to escape with the help of the French Resistance on May 8, 1944. Hiding in the forest of Argon, they decide to continue their struggle and form the only women's detachment "Motherland" in the French Resistance.

The actors are the people and the police. The scene is the streets of the city of Moscow. This music documentary uses filming and editing techniques typical of a music video. Slowmo simultaneously refers to MTV clips and to the renaissance, and close-ups shot with a wide lens are reminiscent of a staged movie by Urusevsky or Lubezki. This is a piece from a rare genre of films directed by Ron Fricke and Leni Riefenstahl. When understanding occurs through the contemplation of reality.

An attempt to create a poetic document in the technique of experimental cinema. In order to outline the contours and determine the composition of the surrounding reality. Deviance in relation to the normative film language leads to the appearance of a dialect. And if a trope in literature is a figure of speech, then observation in cinema is a figure of visualization. Comparison of opposite phenomena in terms of form. Continuous monitoring of the outlines, gradation and contrast of phenomena. Pursuing their meanings and listening to their sound. The creation of a poetic document is like a competition for a new genre by fusing opposing disciplines, film and video. A message caught in a half-position, in motion from one meaning to another. Anticipation of possible meanings in the optics of continuous observation of the surrounding reality. And what if reality is just white noise.

This is a philosophical parable about people who do not live anywhere, namely on the Chusovaya, the river, as beautiful as it is not simple. For each protagonist, the most important question remains to answer the question why these places became a support for them in life, what they found here and how they made their choice.

The film "The Chronicle of Reality" is about the Leningrad-St. Petersburg Documentary Film Studio. Among the heroes of the film are not only famous film directors who shot films at the studio in different years, such as Mikhail Litvyakov, Alexander Sokurov, Victor Kosakovsky, Efim and Alekxey Uchitel, Edgar Bartenev, Pavel Kogan, Evgeny Yufit, Sergey Loznitsa, Nikolai Obukhovich, Lyudmila Stanukinas, but also employees of other professions. Without the energy of all these people, a unique phenomenon in the history of cinematography, the Leningrad-St. Petersburg Documentary Film Studio, would not have been born. The studio was created to shoot propaganda films under the control of communist ideology and managed to shoot lyrical pictures. These films still excite the viewer. The creative opposition of directors, screenwriters and cameramen was able to create, under the conditions of strict censorship, a unique language of film expression, based not on words but on images. "Chronicle of Reality" is a film about how the oldest film studio is imperceptibly changing, and how the country and its people are changing along with it.

Students of a Russian school in Toronto reproduce scenes from the life of Maria Blagoveshchenskaya, a witness to the Stalinist terror, for whom "life under the Soviets was worse than under the Germans during the war." When the truth about the millions of innocently repressed prisoners of war comes out, the childish pride in the Soviet military triumph in World War II cracks. Through dramatic productions and off-screen interviews, students reflect on the consequences of the Stalinist regime. The film calls for an open conversation about the mistakes of the past, the only opportunity to critically assess the direction in which the people of Russia are moving in the current era.

A documentary that tries to tell the personal story of a foreigner in Japan. The social isolation caused by the way of life in the country makes foreigners look at their lives and events in a completely different way. Thus, the clash of mentalities and lifestyles does not lead to conflict, but to a way of self-therapy for a representative of another culture. In this forced loneliness, a person finds answers to the questions of life.
