An elderly couple photographed by a Russian photographer

Russkiy kovcheg

This is a film shot by digital technology, which describes a contemporary filmmaker who suddenly finds himself in an ancient palace in St. Petersburg 1700 years ago, and no one around him can see him. He had the same experience as a French diplomat in the19th century. This adventure allowed them to start a historical roaming and witnessed the changes of Russia for thousands of years.

He strolled in the magnificent palace, witnessed the personal life of Peter the Great who lashed his general wildly with a whip, witnessed Queen Catherine, witnessed the last dinner of the last czar family on the eve of the revolution, and witnessed the last magnificent royal ball in 19 13.

With the development of time travel, the two men kept arguing about the history and culture of Russia: Marquez insisted on the traditional western feelings of love and hate for Russia, while modern filmmakers reflected and questioned his country's past and present.
