Strip and War

2019 · 68 min

A quiet, observant documentary that sits with an awkward family divide and lets the wider social weight settle slowly.

Andrei Kutsila
Genres
Documentary
Tagline
How to escape society's system and break with the Soviet past…
Overview
The film tells the story of a small family, consisting of a grandfather retired from the army, and his stripper grandson. It is not just a story of a relationship, but rather a reflection of entire Belarus and the post-Soviet, pro-Russian world. Moreover, it's a universally-recognized reflection of a generation gap.
