    • Synopsis
    • With its immense art collection, St. Petersburg’s Hermitage is the ark of the Russian soul, a microcosm of Russian history. Characters from both past and present mix magically in this musical and visual feast of art, politics and mysticism. A sumptuous cinematic experience based on the ground-breaking concept of shooting a continuous, entirely uncut 90-minute steadicam shot.
