What The Settlement Is About

The documentary was shot at a settlement. It was set up for people with mental health difficulties. The place is in the countryside, in a quiet area. The film follows a single day there. What is on screen is a peaceful order. The people live together and work together. Everything appears to be in harmony. But in time a feeling of unease appears. The source of that feeling is never explained. The camera does not step in and adds no commentary. The account follows the order of the daily work. Eating, working and resting are parts of that order. The order that is seen and the unease that is felt stand side by side. Sergei Loznitsa’s Russian documentary of 2001 runs eighty minutes.
