Russian documentary "Mess" by Ilya Zheltyakov was selected to Chennai International Short Film Festival, taking place on February, 19 - 25, 2017 in India.
The festival has been started by persons having long associations with film festivals under the ages of Chennai Academy of Motion Picture, a non-profit trust to promote good cinema to the film enthusiasts of Chennai and other parts of Tamil Nadu. Short films have emerged as a universal experimental platform for both professional and amateur film makers alike. With proliferation of high quality digital technology at relatively low prices, every film enthusiast wants to embark on film making and short films are the first stepping stone in that effort.
CISFF is the unique event in India which showcases talents to short film making. It is the only annual International Short Film Festival happening in India with awards in all categories.

The realities of today's Russia. A multitude of stories from a flea market. Dirt, thieves, drugs, vodka, garbage and real treasures, different destinies, dreams, hopes, death, a mingle-mangle of Uzbek pilaf… All of this bubbles and boils crushed by the train rushing by at full speed.
