Maslo Chernogo Tmina - The Untitled

The musician's experimental video Maslo Chernogo Tmina does not have a clear narrative, it is rather a surrealistic and gloomy metaphor of compassion, in which a cafe with post-Soviet aesthetics, detached from a particular time, is assigned the meaning of Purgatory, and his occasional guests - the images of lost souls, for which their last song becomes a background for a mystical ritual-transition. 

All the roles in the video were performed by unprofessional actors without any on camera experience. According to the director's plan, in order to uncover the personality types as much as possible, they were given complete freedom of action, which was fixed by the camera.
