1000 Dreams

 

One day, Nazar walks into the studio of his partner’s ex-husband, Arsen. He looks around his computer and finds something that changes his life. Arsen is an artist who creates fictional worlds into which he loses himself. The romance between reality and the imaginary begins. Dreams and fantasies are forever intertwined with life here and now.

 

The director, who is also an artist and creator, shows the viewer the inner world, the images and imaginations of a creative person, but also their relationship between fiction and a rather harsh reality. The protagonist’s journey is full of deep love but also loneliness, which has been expressed through powerful images. It is so masterfully made that this film’s visual narration does not leave a viewer with sensitive vision untouched.

 

Marat Sarulu has been awarded the prize for the best director in Tallinn Black Nights 2014 edition (“The Move”).
