Documentary dedicated to art historian and curator Igor Zabel (1958 – 2005) and centred on his work in the field of contemporary art from the end of the 1970s until his death. The film leads us through this fractured time at the intersection of 20th and 21st centuries, through (post)modern and contemporary art, local and international art communities, socialism and capitalism, East and West, as Zabel confronts change, conflict, and the endless possibilities of the new.
