This poetic visual for Sansara’s “We Will Become Better” (featuring Felix Bondarev) tells the story of lovers who are separated not only by distance but also by circumstances. Russia’s anti-gay laws and mainstream homophobia mean that their relationship is threatened by violence, and now even the constitution. Written by Evgeny Primachenko and Andzej Gavriss (who also directed it).
