Almost forgot that I shot this music video for a Russian R&B artist Airat in 2008 -- the first music video I ever directed, or my first ever video project for that matter.

But I got used to it because there was nothing evil in it, nothing dishonest, Rustling was life to them.

[...] there isn't a sound out of anybody, only... oh dear, dear-dinner time's noon rolled round-what getting dark already...
