I pretty much love that.
BTW, was shot on film...

There is also a slideshow... Full screen recommended...
It was certainly interesting.

I translated the Russian and I guess it's a recreation of their sweet little memories? Great. But I became really bored looking at this and confused by the details (if you are in to that sort of thing). By the end, I was despondent and potentially suicidal. That may be an exaggeration, but most of the pics didn't do a lot for me. And I have problems with the 'story'.

So, did this guy meet a hooker on a bridge? Or is she a mail-order bride because she ends up preparing a lot of food and laundry for him?

Or it could just be a subtle ski Gulmarg ad, too. Or a McDonalds and scented candles ad? Dunno. However, used and empty fast food containers are gross.

So, this guy was on his laptop while she was ironing. He was on his laptop while she prepared food. He was on his laptop during their picnic at the park. And when she was on his laptop, he found another laptop, but kept staring at his laptop. That's just a cry for help. He must be really important in World of Warcraft.

You could also read into this that men use computers, cameras, and guitars. Women cook, wash dishes, and do laundry. It's a statement, man! A Russian conspiracy to snuff the free spirited women of Western culture! Go back to building bomb shelters! The Ruskies are coming! Maybe not.

If he proposed at the airport and gave her a ring, shouldn't she have been wearing that ring in the pics after the proposal? My time machine is broken so I am limited to linear time myself. When they met up at the airport, she is wearing the ring before he gives it to her, so I assume he steals it at some point. At least, she forgave him. Even if she didn't wear the ring again after that.

The composition isn't terrible, though a few shots have trees and poles coming out of their heads. What I see that I really don't like, however, are the inconsistent skin tones. Maybe this is just the beauty of film? And muted colors are the editing tools of the digital impotent.

Now, you are the suspected eleventh Russian spy, Artem. WTG, comrade.

But, seriously, thanks for posting this. It is an interesting concept.
Shane, that's a very interesting way to look at this.

RE: Russian spies - I really wish I was one. Since I don't know anything, then I would receive a paycheck for nothing from FSB (Russian CIA)... And look at their lifestyle - $500K houses, trips, thousands of dollars "pocket money"...

Just checked Monster.com - nothing available for spies...

Missy, he isn't a goob. He is 'socially connected'. And in World of Warcraft, he is a fierce warrior and in the real world that translates to 'goob'. Damn. You're right.

Artem, you have to demonstrate a certain level of incompetence to be a Russian spy and they have to recruit you. Maybe try wearing one of those furry hats that looks like an upside-down hair bucket and walk around downtown 'defecting'.

In those pics, I did notice the grain on a few, which I liked.
You may laugh, but I do have onew of those hats... Does this pic qualifies me as a potential Russian spy? :)

I think that picture qualifies you as a lot of things :)
I love the cart guy's reaction to them in the airport. :)
