A portrait of Naum Kleiman — film scholar, historian, and sage. In conversation with him, a vast cultural landscape unfolds, where Pushkin meets Godard, Sokurov, Dionysius, Eisenstein, Snyders, Glass, Ozu, and many others. Kleiman reveals the simplicity of mystery, and in doing so, reveals himself.

The St. Petersburg printing house of the Academy of Sciences has served the cause of education since 1727. Her presses produced the first editions of Pushkin, Lomonosov, Euler, Derzhavin, Likhachev... She was lucky to survive into our century.
