Forty years ago, a documentary film about Soviet cardiac surgeons was released. Perhaps, for the first time on our screen, doctors reflected on the value of human life, talked about their experiences caused by the death of a patient, about the imperfection of Soviet medicine, the lack of knowledge and responsibility of doctors. For forty years, medicine has made an incredible breakthrough, but the moral problems that plague doctors have remained the same. “You can’t get used to death” is the leitmotif of the paintings, old and new.

The White Guard is the first novel by Mikhail Afanasyevich Bulgakov. It describes the events of the Civil War in Ukraine in 1918-1919. The work was conceived by the author as a large-scale trilogy about the civil war, but the author wrote only the first part of it. Confirmation that Bulgakov worked on the second and third parts of the novel are the stories "The Raid", "On the Night of the Third Number", "I Killed" and others. The film is dedicated to the centenary of the writing of the novel "The White Guard", to the centenary of the civil war in Russia. This is an attempt to analyze the scale of the historical tragedy through the prism of the views of a great artist.

Accounts of early film spectatorship often explain the viewer’s fascination with peripheral details—i.e. the wind in the trees of the Lumieres’ Repas de bebe—as an attraction to the “contingencies” indiscriminately captured by the camera. Rethinking the appeal of rippling waves, rising dust, and fluttering leaves in terms of unplannable movements rather than unplanned events, this video essay examines an unlikely sympathy between early cinema spectatorship and the recent attention to hyperrealistic details in computer-generated animation, such as the dust in Wall-E, the flowing hair in Brave, and the snow in Frozen.
