The Way
Andrey Zashikhin
(4:30)
The debut film of the Russian animation artist Andrey Zashikhin. Filled with psychedelic images, the sci-fi film is a story of loneliness on a spaceship, whose pilot decides to maneuver through rings of a protoplanetary disk. The film combines a thoroughly worked out science fiction plot and surrealism of the protagonist’s dreams, based on the lyrics of the song. The visual solutions are inspired by the Soviet sci-fi style, and the graphics are stylized by such traditional illustrative materials as charcoal, graphite, and watercolor. The action on the screen is developing in the rhythm of the melancholic track “The Way” by the underground electro-folk group ЭД9М.
