Russian Mentality says: "Filmmaking? No... You can't do it. It's either for people with connections, or with money". That was the words that stopped me 3 years ago when I was choosing a University to study at.
Not cinematography, but management and economics. Ok. That was not bad. Plenty of great people were there! But... I gave up. I left the prestigious Uni after 2,5 years of studying and changed my life completely. I've started it from the very beginning, trying to cope with what Russian Mentality has sad.
For that I've spent almost half of the year. 6 months of stagnation. Not a great time... In addition to this I left wonderful and the best city of Russia (Saint Petersburg) with its best people, to a town-in-the-middle-of-nowhere with nobody...
However, here I live in a family - that's the biggest pros! In a big, funny and happy family with elders, mums, dads, kids, pets and sparrows. And that's good for everybody - we make each other happy, while trying to make each own way. All those people helped me A LOT to get over the difficulties.
So, here I am today! Doing what I can, trying to be able to do it better. And ready to work more the next day than the previous one. It doesn't matter where I was born, what language I speak and who is my friend. I will do it! Are listening to me Russian Mentality?
