Humanity died of unstoppable lust. Time stopped. Only two stayed alive. They fill and form the emptiness around with quite sounds and pauses. Their destiny is to save humanity with the help of Petty and Gimmy living in their heads. It is a musical post-apocalyptic movie. First part of mini-series discovering the territory of russian contemporary art music in form of popular genre films (post-apocalyptic, horror, space opera, etc.). Film is based on real characters: Kirill Shirokov (composer) and Sasha Elina (music performer), founders of `the same` ensemble, specialized in performing quite music related to certain space and time. During the film they perform music pieces from ‘every day melodies’ series composed by Kirill Shirokov. Interaction of time and space in perception of the spectator constructs the center point of the video.
