Synopsis of the film Incomplete Dreams by Tynchtykbek Akimaliev

 

This short movie reflects author’s attempt to remind the audience in some symbolic way about the life values and inevitability of death. Such stylistic has been used by the author on purpose, when via boy’s fragments of the memory related to his childhood and dreams, the whole picture-mood effecting sub consciousness of the audience, is related.
