"The short list included 18 movies, including those from students from the University of Florida. I liked the plot of the film "Quiet voices" from Russian students, where there is no action, no people, but there is a very special atmosphere. This is a film about the 1986 pioneer camp, about that the ruins are now in its place", – the festival expert Ada Bernatonite told RIA Tomsk.
