Marina’s Life
1966 · 20 min · Documentary
The central figure, Marina, recalls an unfulfilled dream of becoming an actress and speaks of the challenging time of the siege of Leningrad. Her account is heard over footage from a restaurant catering to young visitors where she is waiting tables. Fingers moving over the valves of a trumpet; the heels of shoes tapping out a rhythm on the parquet floor; girls waiting anxiously to be asked for a dance. A hidden camera records a place full of joy and ease, while Marina’s memories run on the soundtrack.
