NIKITA KINO

In 1960 my father discovered his sister and brother in Moscow, who he hadnt seen for 40 years, were still alive. Since they couldnt travel out of the USSR then, we went to see them yearly for about 15 years. At the time I had my 8mm- then a Super-8-camera with which I filmed the family, our outings, picnics, markets. I decided to use this material by mixing it with Soviet found footage of the same period. (Vivian Ostrovsky)
