The film Sergei Eisenstein: Mexican Fantasy is not an attempt to reconstruct a film that was never made except in the filmmaker′s head. It is an investigation in to the nature of incomplete films, and it attempts to touch on the secrets of a lost Atlantis. The key to these secrets lies in the contradictions of Mexico, a country in which different religious, cultural and social forms of life co-exist and which, for Eisenstein, presented an image of human civilization, in eternal struggle and always changing. With this film, we attempted to reveal Eisenstein′s thoughts about life and death, memory and beauty and about the divine cosmos in which humankind lives, loves and suffers. We want our audience to share in the emotions which this tragically unfinished, yet suggestively beautiful work provokes. -- Oleg Kovalov
