Description: Russian director Igor Voloshin’s semi autobiographic story about his life growing up in 90’s Russia. ‘I Am’ follows young Geroi, whose youth was spent mostly hanging with his mates on the streets looking for his next way to get wasted. Now a young man having been beaten and abused by the authorities, he’s put in a criminal mental institute. The film follows his struggle inside the institute, and the even darker internal struggle he faces. Instead of facing the grim reality of his situation, he does his best to keep himself drugged out of his mind in a dreamlike fantasy world, where his remembered past intertwine with his re-imagined present.
