Karl Marx, Yanukovych, Putin; there's history between the pages of the books at the Petrivka book market in Kiev. A film on people who still believe in the intangible and material worth of these books, the works themselves, which portray both yesteryear and modern-day heroes, and ideas of bygone times now only to be found on the yellowed pages of second-hand books.

The Festival of Film and Urbanism, based in the Ukrainian city of Slavutych, the city purposely built for the evacuated personnel of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, recently came up with a compe-tition entitled “My Street Films Ukraine”, which called on everyone across the Ukraine to pick up a camera and, under expert supervision, film a local-interest story. The festival then screened thir-teen of these works, which reflect on contemporary urban life in six Ukrainian cities; Berezhany, Kiev, Kherson, Kramatorsk, Novoyavorivsk and Simferopol. Though the approach of the individual works may differ, ranging as it does from self-shot footage to conceptual art, the focus of all the featured films remains unmistakably true to immediate reality.
