The new release by Russian rapper Noize MC speaks about the contemporary poet, whose existence is surrounded by the whispers of others. It consists of his poems, various quotations by 20th century Russian authors and their archived audio samples. Therefore Osip Mandelstam, Vladimir Mayakovsky and Sergey Yesenin can be seen as co-authors in their own way. "Pochitay starshih" (Pay Respect to the Elder) is a manifesto which is intended to awaken the feelings of honor and to commerate a cultural and literary heritage, as well as encourage reading. Osip Mandelstam No, never have I ever been anybody's contemporary, I wouldn't know what to do with such honor. Oh, how repulsive to me is that mere namesake, that one was not I, that one was another. 1924 Vladimir Mayakovsky | But Could you? Upon the scales of metal fishes I read the new lips’ attitude. But could you now perform a nocturne Just playing on a drainpipe flute? 1913 Sergey Esenin | Hooligan’s Confession I like it when the stones of abuse Are hurled at me, like hail from a belching thunderstorm, I just grip all the tighter With my hands — the shaken bubble of my hair. 1920 Written and Directed by Lado Kvataniya DOP | Andrey Krauzov Producer | Andrey Samsonov Executive producers | llya Stewart, Murad Osmann, Ilya Dzhincharadze, Irina Kanevskaya Assistant producer | Victoria Makarova ZUKCLUB / Graffiti | Sergey Ovseykin, Nikita Parunin, Roman Kozlov Illustration / Animation | Dmirty Maseykin Animation | Pavel Nikiforov, Egor Keon, Andrey Potekhin, Anton Kornik Production Designer -|Alexey Yandovskiy Set Decorator | Sofia Yavelskaya 1 AD | Ekaterina Laposhina 2nd Unit DOP | Alexander Ponomarev Production Managers | Dmitriy Dimchevskiy, Mikhail Goglov Stylist | Boris Kukolkin 1st AC | Alexander Budarin Camera Assistant | Sergey Ivanov Location Manager | Vladimir Kravchenko Postproduction Producer | Luise Levitina Edit | Kirill Khandurin, Yan Getmanchenko, Vlad Yakunin Color Correction | Timofey Goloborod’ko SFX | Tim Aminov Carboncore CQ Studio TBQ CG Studio 16mm / KODAK HypeProduction /// RUSSIA, 2019
