A DOCUMENTARY FILM / LASSE LINDER / SWITZERLAND

ALL CATS ARE GREY IN THE DARK

TRAILER

«All Cats Are Grey in the Dark» is an ode to love as the greatest virtue that makes us people with burning hearts. The lives of three characters merged into one picture on the screen: one person and two cats, and each of them helping the other to escape loneliness.

— How do you understand the phrase «dialogue of cultures»?

To listen and learn from people with different backgrounds and concepts of life

— What is the main skill for their documentary filmmaker

I think that one of the main skills for a documentary filmmaker being able to empathize with the protagonists, to listen, to be able to form a bond of trust and to be patient. It's a social skill.

«Mediacongress is a place of meetings, conversations and finding yourself anew. For me, as a man working in the cultural sector, it was very important to be able to present myself at The Hermitage Museum. It is the most important museum in the world».
