*My Undesirable Friends: Part I – Last Air in Moscow* (2024), directed by Julia Loktev
The world you are about to see no longer exists.
A film that began by capturing the daily lives of independent Russian journalists transforms, mid-production, into a record of the eve of war.
Even as the war unfolds, their lives continue as if nothing has changed. Yet, for these journalists, the enemy lies within their own country, and moments of sudden tension strike without warning. Ordinary days pass by—precious, yet fleeting.
