Academy 2015

Directed by Andrey Kachalyan

A short review of one day in the life of young artists, mostly women, from different countries, students at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. Documentary episodes are interspersed with scenes, that mimic everyday life, and with the excerpts from the work by Sabina Spielrein, the first female psychoanalyst. What happens to life when nothing is happening, and what is the motivation of young artists, but already not so young people, to make art? The work continues the theme of the video “Interview” (2013), in which the author asked this questions to himself.
