Still Life With Wife / Vaikelu Naisega

Estonia | 2006 | col | 52 mins | dir. Kersti Uibo

An unusual couple lives in the urban backwater of Ivangorod in Russia. Vladimir Titov paints some conventionally attractive landscapes of his native town for sale, but as an artist, his passions are Cubism and still life. Natalia Titova has carved for herself the role of long-suffering 'muse' in this relationship. Married for more than 25 years, their endless sniping never intensifies into the major quarrel that would resolve everything. This constant tension helps Vladimir to paint and is Natalia's reason of living.

Followed by Q&A with dir. Kersti Uibo
