A film representing a stroll through St. Petersburg. Captured by a broken frame composition, deserted streets, frozen city infrastructure, stone embankments, pigeons in parks, dandelions breaking through the pavements, aberrations of color and light evoke an increasing sense of unease. Ambient sounds—random conversations, city noises, and a track composed by Mexican sound artist Enrique Arriaga—merge with the visuals, making the film a direct speech of a human/camera/witness about what clearly audible in the actual urban space.

A man, Nikola Vaptsarov was sentenced to death on 23 July 1942 by a field court marshal of the then Bulgarian puppet government. Surprisingly enough, the then Communist leaders in charge of Vaptsarov's activities and tried by the same court, got off with lighter sentences and in the wake of the upheaval of 1944 stood at the helm of this country. A decade later, the world got to know that the man executed in the hot summer of 1942 was the greatest of all the Bulgarian poets born in the twentieth century. And his nearest and dearest took to cashing in on his popularity.

Set in the African savannah, the film follows Kion as he assembles the members of the 'Lion Guard'. Throughout the film, the diverse team of young animals will learn how to utilize each of their unique abilities to solve problems and accomplish tasks to maintain balance within the Circle of Life, while also introducing viewers to the vast array of animals that populate the prodigious African landscape.
