    I wonder how americans feel about this chinese-russian brotherhood ;-))

    Nu, congratulations Shatlarina!

    Russia itself is ambivalent about this brotherhood. But we can not hide the fact from history, that this two countries have been in close contact and cooperation for many decades. It felt so much just at the border.
    And how do you think, how Americans will find such a film after watching? It is very interesting for us. We want to see how it looks from the outside.

    I just watched this film with a friend of mine, here in New York. We both really appreciated the scenes where opposite countries were shown in the same activities -- it's almost cliche, but it's still relevant. Seeing the two artists coughing...

    I'd hope for more to see the difficulties and hopes you present in this film. Thanks :)

    Very well done, but at some stages of the documentary I wished you had gone deeper into this interesting subject.

    Maybe you should further improve the synchronization of sound and picture.

    Thank you very much for your comment! You are right, this theme can and should be studied further. There are still a lot of things that can be explored in this subject.
