    No Place for Fools (Oleg Mavromatti, 2015)

    As part of our ongoing cultural season exploring various aspects of queer sensuality in Russia and beyond, Pushkin House presents a one-off screening of No Place For Fools, a radical work by artist and filmmaker Oleg Mavromatti that premiered in 2015 at the Rotterdam Film Festival.

    Mavromatti assembled a found-footage experimental film using fragments of the video blog of the late Sergei Astakhov, a gay man and Orthodox activist who had a developmental disability.
