All Activities According to the Plan

About This Movie

So, 'All Activities According to the Plan' is this intriguing documentary that captures the essence of rural life through the eyes of Denis Dashkevich, who's running the House of Culture in Pobolovo. It’s a slow burn, really—Denis's ambition to set up a computer class for the village's elderly paints a vivid picture of both hope and the sometimes harsh reality of rural initiatives. The film has this raw, almost voyeuristic quality, allowing you to get a sense of the local atmosphere and the subtle tensions that arise between tradition and modernity. The pacing feels contemplative, like a walk through the village itself. The performances, especially from the locals, add a genuine layer of authenticity that makes it stand out in the documentary scene.
