It was built more than twenty five years ago by volunteers for people with physical and mental disabilities, doomed to specialized closed-type psychoneurological institutions. Many of them couldn't put two words together before they got to the village. They sat under lock and key. In Svetlana people avoid the words «disabled» or «unhealthy», preferring to call such people «folk». They are not engaged in miraculous healing and specific training; the diagnosis is not important here. Here folk have conditions for a normal human life. Healthy and unhealthy people communicate on equal terms, work together, put on performances, and run a joint household. People with disabilities do not feel as if they are sick or damaged. Everyone is equal here. It took us 13 years to make this film. See less
