PRAVDA

12 views

In an era of social media and superficiality, this film instead focuses on the authenticity of human depths and the gifts of life, however ugly and painful they may be. Here, pain and ugliness are transformed as forms of beauty and truth. Through the painful story of a mother–son relationship, life emerges as a true harmony, needing no search for truth, happiness, or beauty beyond the authenticity of life itself — its emotions, trials, and pain — and what already exists. WARNING : ONLY the element of the Blue Flower is a flame retouch created using generative motion imaging from real frames.

biography

I'm Nas, 20y, Franco-Russian, director of my first short film. I grew up in a culturally diverse environment, shaping my curiosity and search for meaning. I love low-budget independent cinema rooted in real human experiences. I want to connect people and explore intimacy, vulnerability, and truth.
