Plot synopsis

Constructor Barkhatov’s Sunset is a video comic book, build on reediting old shootings at some Ural plant, using computer graphics and flash animation. While the first part looks a bit like crazy Soviet-style documentary propaganda, the second one brings us an alternative reality, inhabited by revived phantoms of Krokodil magazine: spongers, alcoholics, abstract artists, and other nonconformists. The main character - Barkhatov - is a Superman on a mission to fight enemies of working class people. The story develops so dramatically that the catharsis effect is 100% guaranteed.
