Truly Yours, ANNA POLIBINA-POLANSKY, a film director and a script writer from Moscow

*****Anna Polibina, a fruitful experimental filmmaker from Moscow (March, 2013) Dear colleagues! As I am cultivating up lifted genres and elated themes in cinema, I truly need your assistance, advice and collaboration. I have screened over 260 shortcuts (at a variety of plots, subjects and themes) so far, predominantly in English and Russian, but also in French, Spanish and Italian (of outstanding and less known poets, writers, literary translators, legendary filmmakers of the past and of the present; of colorful cultural landscapes and genre traditions). I operate with self-drawn sketches and drawings, but video, animation and installations are also involved into my experimental films. My scripts (that are basic, paramount - at the structure of my films) are poetic, for the most part. I create a metaphorical script and a video row for my films (make drafts, draw portraits and paisages - stylized under the described epoch), write tunes and embody the sound. So I am not only the director-essayist for my films, but also the artist, the actress and the music composer. I thought up an art house technique that allows me embody complicated, exquisite and delicate ideas and themes. I consider myself a fruitful author of films, as my mind is yet abundant with new ideas and subjects. I would gladly offer dozens my new films to international festivals, provided that they would not ask an admission fee. For the primary showing at a festival, I ask no royalties. My only target is to get the world acquainted with my genres and topics, to let audiences encounter my stylistic manners. If my suggestion is of interest to you, please let me know at my e-mail address (annoushkap@list.ru), so we could get connected to each other and work together. I can immediately send you video trailers and teasers that reflect my genre manner. I can estimate the genre, as my experience at genres is truly huge. I had worked as a script writer, editor, director, author of soundtracks' texts and translator, for the cinema industry, before I realized that I could become a sheerly independent author of films. My own film fund is inexhaustible and is comprised of over 260 works (that I have screened all by myself), as I have mentioned, over a multitude of worthy cultural subjects. It will suffice to mention several of my themes and protagonists. I have screened movies about Anna Akhmatova (that got a diploma "For the genre debut" of New York Film Festival of Russian Documentaries in 2012), Tsvetaeva, Joseph Brodsky (it was shown in 2012 at the Moscow Central House of Literators, by a known Russian poet Cyril Covalgi, at his personal literary studio), Emily Dickinson ("At the Unheard Frigates of June" is a member of IMDB.COM - this movie got "golden" prizes and statues, at International Festivals and was shown at the State Literary Museum in 2013) , Constantine Cavafis, Zinaida Gippius, Yakov Protazanov, W.-H.Auden, Michael Chekhov, Osip Mandelstam, Serguey Dovlatov. I also made films of Venice, Berlin, Moscow, Saint Petersburg, the Golden Ring of Russia, of Basel and Strasbourg, of the Alps, of the Black Sea and of other great cultural and spiritual landscapes and places. My viewers become devoted worshipers of my humble genres, after having opened my genres, characters and plots, for themselves. I have screened my own films, for already over 10 years. From this excerpt, you can judge of my bio and literary experience that serve a substance for my plots (I consider meaningful, such periods of my life as my studentship at the legendary Literary Institute of Moscow or the time when I eagerly traveled Europe). My shortcuts (from 10 up to 60 minutes) can serve a versatile and elated material for your thematic festivals. My poetic intonation and subtle drafts will surely ornate your demonstration. With all my dedication to the upper genre, and with my aspirations for common work and reciprocal joy and use. Anna Polibina-Polansky, an experimental film maker.

'The Monocineartstudio of Anna Polibina-Polansky' is 10 years of age!!

Dear colleagues, I ought to inform you of how fruitful that period of time was to myself. I haven't visited my blog for long, but I managed to create dozens of short biograpraphy-and-lyrical films, all in verses. I know that many festivals, forums and showings worldwide may be interested in my films. The Russian culture and the culture of the Russian emigration over the entire 20th century, occupy a special place in my filmography. Dozens of thematic items has appeared in the list of my works, so far. Recent years have brought me fresh angles of visions and new prospectives... Let me mention just several of themes that I have developed in the recent years. These are my protagonists and main characters. Osip Mandelstam, Constantine Cavafis, Joseph Brodsky and his Leningrad environment, Asya Pekurovskaya, Dmitry Bobyshev, Anna Akhmatova (in English, Russian, French), Marina Tsvetaeva, Zinaida Gippius, Boris Pasternak, Emily Dickinson, Anne Sexton, Antonia Pozzi, Serguey Dovlatov, the 'silver age' of the Russian poetry, the lyrics of the Russian 'mental patients', Yury Vizbor, Russian actresses of the 70s, musical plots, the latest waves of the Russian cultural emigration to America and Europe (I up screened several plots in Europe, in such countries as Switzerland, Germany, France, Poland), the culture of flamenco, musical fables, the avant guard century of the European cinema, Michael Chekhov, Yakov Protazanov and the 'golden era' of the Russian cinematographer... Marc Aldanov, Semen Frank, purely lyrical films, Alpine plots (up screened in the Alps, in the year 2011). Here are my themes, and the major part of my scripts, I created at the poetic form. These are shortcuts, and many of films are comprised of several parts. Films are in English and Russian, for the most part, but definite works are also in French, Spanish and Italian. All films are created over my own scripts (in the strict, classical poetic form, as I have mentioned). If your festival or demonstration will ever welcome my films, we will reciprocally benefit from it, the use will be mutual. These are truly elated themes, and I embrace up lifted styles and manners. Moreover, those films are at the ridge of humanism and culture, and this tendency will last until the mankind abides in the cultural realm. You ought to mention the themes that occupy you the most, and I will send you the relative films at a separate CD or on a flashcard, so that you could enjoy the syllable and the manner in which I embody my subjects, themes and plots. I create the entire video-row (often in my self-made drafts, all by hand), the poetic script, the music for my films, I make the feature video cut and I embody the film in voices and tunes. I do combine all those qualities in my short and full-meter films. I hope you will join the row of my warm worshipers as soon as you get acquainted with my genres. In the year 2013, my 'Monocineartstudio of Anna Polibina-Polansky' is 10 years of age, I am proud to mention... Since then, I have practices an entire gamma of allegoric genres and feature topics. My metaphor is complicated, recognizable and ripened, for now. Let me inspire you with my themes, tonalities and stylistic clues. Anna Polibina-Polansky, an experimental feature-and-documentary film director-essayist from Moscow. annoushkap@list.ru
