Description:
In post-Soviet Russia there is a phenomenon beyond ice fishing, matryoshkas and vodka: the garage settlement. Tin huts, inhospitable from the outside, provide a refuge for a large number of Russians - mainly men. Suiting the inhabitants' own tastes and unbound by any rules, with ingenuity and tenacity, alternative habitats are created on just a few square meters. Everything is here, and everything seems possible. The garages are an expression of a retreat into the private sphere, an escape from everyday life.
