The Secret Aesthetics of the Martian Spies

Martian Spies tells a love story between a boy who pretends to be a terrorist and a young girl, who is the wife of a KGB agent. The boy tells her that he has been hired to shoot the president – Yeltsin. The end is poetic yet addressing the politics of revenge and corruption in Russia. Miners stand in front of their mine, singing a song, which tells the story of contemporary Russian politics.
