BLUE EYES AND COLORFUL MY DRESS


"I'm running through the puddles! I'm running through the puddles!" Zhana exclaims. Eyes aglow, the three-year-old marches off, full of delight at the little miracles of everyday life. Her mother, director Polina Gumiela, follows her, camera in hand. The audience is right there as the inquisitive toddler, brave and fearless, makes new acquaintances, speaks with other children, plays and explores her surroundings. Guided by her curiosity, Zhana makes connections everywhere she goes, and is certainly capable of giving a cheeky response once in a while too. A mother's portrait of a child whose alertness and enthusiasm are contagious.
