Girls on stairwells - the triumph of post-Soviet entrances

Photographer and director Nadia Bedzhanova is interested in the life of modern youth. One day, on the fourth day of the ever-dragging winter holidays in Moscow, Nadia wandered into the entrance of her friend's house.

"He had such a character of his own — perfect decorations: a Russian flag, a calendar with Putin, a calendar with a goat (according to the Chinese calendar, the year of the Goat has come) and a giant Christmas tree," says Bejanova. — I took a picture of a friend in the entrance, who pretended to be a concierge, and posted it on Instagram, it turned out very cool. Then I noticed that every post-Soviet entrance has its own highlight: plants, Christmas trees, strange decorations. You just need to add a girl and take an Olympus camera."

Together with producer Olya Korovkina, Nadia chose eight girls and created a photo series - girls against the background of ridiculous stairwells. This is an ode to both the new generation of Muscovites and the strange spaces of Russian entrances. "Everyone in Russian cities has strange memories associated with entrances, especially from the time of high school: they drank beer and smoked their first cigarettes in the entrances."
