- Synopsis
- „Motor Nasch“ tells the story of the encounter between 100 year old Alexandra Konstantinovna of Moscow, her daughters, her granddaughters and great-granddaughters - six women of four generations. Their stories cover the period in which the Soviet Union was built and broken up: Alexandra experienced the revolution of 1917 as a young mother, the 1984 born Nastja the end of the communist system as a little schoolgirl. The women’s narrations build a different picture of the history and Soviet Union’s everyday life: a picture, which challenges old and new stereotypical perceptions.
