'The best way to make your audience feel is to trick them. If they hear laughter, they will not be able to resist. Like a mob on a cobblestone road stampeding through the center of a filthy, redemption starved town; the unnatural laughter will lead the masses with it to slay the wicked beast atop the hill.' These were the words of famed Russian filmmaker Vyacheslav (Vegi-slav) Krilov. This short film chronicles the rise and fall and rise again of this infamous artist. From the height of his career at the Institute for Redemption Starvation Studies, to his imprisonment in a dank Siberian Gulag this film tells the tale. Part of the long running 'Moving Picture Makers' serial this 'documentary' holds up to their usual standards of quality. For anyone who has ever dreamed of picking up a film camera, making a piece of art, or going to prison - this film is sure to inspire. This film also features clips from rare Krilov classics including 'If Not Redeemed, Babies are Angry' and 'The Unbirth'.
