Inspired by the contemporary writer, Shamshad Abdullaev’s poem, “On The Side of the Stones”, Ushakov’s Collection of Stones is at once a cinematic experiment in pace and duration, while also a fixed-frame meditation observing one man’s sublime gentleness as he walks around a city with a box picking up select small rocks like they’re good luck charms, lunches alongside a public basketball court, rests in a park, and sits at a bus stop examining the newly gathered stones.
