White haired oldman named Robert Belov is blind and weak but his thunder like voice claims openly his hatred to any government. With all that he gently loves poetry and people anyhow connected to poetry. He loves Perm – the region of prisons – where the government always did exile poets and killers. And Robert writes about them a book of “salty” anecdotes under the name “Permshchina”. With a company of occasional companions he goes to travel the places of Urals connected with Boris Pasternak, a poet and writer. He makes the landscapes and voices sound differently and thus creates an informal, living guide for the surroundings of Kama-river. Died on November 16, 2021.
