The 3 rooms of MelancholiaPirjo Honkasalo
In three chapters, this poetic and subtle documentary shows the broad range of emotions that a bloody conflict like the Russian-Chechen war inspires in young children. Hate, confusion but mostly sadness can be read in the eyes of young soldiers in military school, the war orphans of Grozny and the children in refugee camps across the border. Its rigid structure and powerful cinematography make “The 3 Rooms of Melancholia” into a multilayered story about innocence lost.
