Director’s statement
The film is made as an opportunity to bring awareness to our lives, an opportunity to say that we all need to prioritize and figure out what is important to us in this life as long as we have the opportunity to do so.
The second reason is the legendary Moscow staircase, which has been preserved since the 19th century. It's very important to capture its appearance while it still exists. Our world is changing too fast and it's important to leave at least a cultural trace for posterity.
