The Village Detective: a song cycle

A decades-old Soviet film washes up in an Icelandic fisherman's net, revealing a hidden window into the past through the filmography of its iconic leading actor.

Four reels of a 1969 Russian film, starring Mikhail Zharov, were discovered in a fisherman's net at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. The recovered footage is combined with music and interviews to create a song cycle exploring the intersection of life, history, and art on film.
