A Film By Marianne Kapfer



35 mm 62min. black/white






Moscow in May: time for parades and demonstrations. Moscovites celebrate the Russian victory over Nazi-Germany and the communists demonstrate against the Kremlin-government. Peter Bandit, american singer from Los Angeles, and his band , "Peter Bandit's Root 66", come to town. A german-russian filmteam wants to make a movie about them. But Moscow is big and seductive, the girls are pretty and russian customs are rough. Bad conditions for making a film about four strangers coming to Russia for the first time. A film about music and life in Moscow, one of the most beautiful and exciting, but still one of the toughest cities in the world.
