[Text available only in English] SHESTAYA is an experiment in live soundtracks and a research work on the cinematography of the great russian director DZIGA VERTOV (1896-1954).
Inspired by the unrestrainable Vertovʼs cine-eye and by his constant search for a film-truth, Shestaya sounds like a combination of beats, ambient, field recording and poetic voice of cello.
A contemporary suite to rediscover three masterpieces that stand at the very roots of modern documentary, looking beyond the contradictions of their propaganda purposes, on a timeless journey through people, works, faces, and alienated life in the Soviet twenties. A vivid dialogue between old images and new sounds.
