6. Welcome - Scout Film Festival 2019 Animation, Female Filmmaker (19 to 24)

By Polina Kutukina, Russian Federation

This story is about the relationship between a young arrogant rector of the church, fresh from the divinity school, and an old woman who has devoted her entire life to the service of God and for whom the church became a real home. The film carries the idea that besides the spiritual world, each of us builds our own world for ourselves. We should not forget as well about the physical world that is around us. It is the symbiosis that presents the world in which “the ceiling does not fall on our heads”.
