Ivan and The Moon

by Daria Tuminas

Ivan is the elder, he is 16.Andrey, nicknamed “Moon”, is the younger, 14 by now.Two brothers live in a far located village in the northern part of Russia. They differ from city teenagers a lot - have completely other moral values and fairy tale world inside: go hunting and fishing, know joiner's chisel, play with ghosts at abandoned places, do not want to move to a city, love nature (I have never heard from city boys words like: “Look! The sunset is so beautiful tonight!”)...Mature and childish at the same time. Naive and enigmatic.In this ongoing project I want to show the mysteriousness of these brothers world.
