I was afraid that no film could convey Vova's (Vladimir Radunsky's) talent, originality, human warmth and humour.
I was wrong: this documentary, though far from offering us an exhaustive picture (it would need at least another hour), does precisely this.
It gives a portrait of the artist and of the man in all of his humanity, quirks and antics included. All of what made Vova such a special person, so endearing to those who knew him well.
Through carefully picked examples of his multidimensional frame of work and conversations with some of his friends and colleagues, we are able to witness several aspects of Vova's persona - this enables us to form (or in the case of those who knew him, to treasure) our very own portrait, forever engraved in our minds.
