Landslide represents post-revolutionary Ukraine through the community of people who ‘try to build a new society’ in the cracks and pores of a collapsing social system. The film unfolds in a space that has been reclaimed from the city by forces of nature – in the very centre of Ukrainian capital Kiev. As a result of a series of landslides, this space has become untenable and was subsequently occupied by the outcasts and outsiders of all kinds. Its now alo an important meeting spot for counterculture and artistic underground. A secretive graffiti team, a group of DIY -geeks and an avant-garde gay theatre that fled the war in Luhansk all struggle to create a place where they could coexist outside the pressure of dysfunctional social structures.

The film is part of the almanac of short films Contours.
