Kogda ja vyigrau million
If i win a million
Anna Dranitsina / Russian Federation / 2008 / 23 min / Colour
The republic of Altaj is transforming into the Las Vegas of Russia. Young Dimon wants to go into the slot-machine business. With his van he reaches towns in the uplands of the Altaj to install these machines in bars and stores. The curiosity of those who hope to win “a million” and thus realize all their dreams is contrasted by the suspiciousness of those who, with the arrival of these machines, see the spirit and lifestyle of these mountains broken. The people up there are very attached to their traditions and resistant to change. Many take a dim view of the arrival of habits that break with the antique customs of these places and bring with them the frenzy and false hopes of Western consumerism.
