PRESS KIT The Invisible City Synopsis: Igor (30) has been living in the Zone of Chernobyl for almost ten years. He wanted to find peace and a chance to escape from the modern civilization. Psychological issues, both personal and global, are still troubling him. He embodies both harmonizing peace and supernatural stress. And an existential secret. A secret of the essence of life. He is surrounded by the elderly inhabitants of Chernobyl who live in villages entirely overcome by nature. They lead their unrealistic Atlantean life, from which even war in the Ukraine seems to be happening on another planet.
