A film by: Andreas Koefoed
Documentary – 58 Minutes – Color HD – Danish, English, Russian / Denmark 2012
Accompanied by their taciturn and indifferent Russian polar bear guard, the Danish band Efterklang goes on an audio treasure hunt in the empty buildings of the abandoned Russian mining town Piramida, while the narrator, former Piramida citizen Alexander, takes us back to a bygone era, when the town flourished and the immigrant Russian miners and their families lived in a Soviet parallel society far from the brutal reality of their homeland. It is a film about silence, remembering, creation and destruction.
