Russian Ark Page #5

Synopsis: An unseen man regains consciousness, not knowing who or where he is. No one seems to be able to see him, except the mysterious man dressed in black. He eventually learns through their discussions that this man is a 19th century French aristocrat, who he coins the "European". This turn of events is unusual as the unseen man has a knowledge of the present day. The two quickly learn that they are in the Winter Palace of the Hermitage in St. Petersburg, the European who has a comprehensive knowledge of Russian history to his time. As the two travel through the palace and its grounds, they interact with people from various eras of Russian history, either through events that have happened at the palace or through the viewing of artifacts housed in the museum. Ultimately, the unseen man's desired journey is to move forward, with or without his European companion.

Bravo! More! More!

Where were you? I lost you.

I'm here.

I lost you.

Lost...

I'm sad.

Let's go.

To where?

Where? Forward.

Forward...

what will we find over there?

Over there? I don't know.

I'm staying.

Farewell, europe.

It's over.

You might say I grew up here.

But I'm not quite myself.

It's as if

I were in someone else's house.

Listen up! Look here!

Poor man, your lady has gone away!

- Flown away like a bird!

- Gone...

in a flash!

Shall we dine together?

I'll wait downstairs.

Bring up the coach.

Have our coats brought up.

And don't lose them!

When we return to kursk,

we must organise a ball.

Just before lent, for example.

I think we should invite your nephew

as well as varenka. Let him see.

Nathalie!

It feels like we're floating.

It seems all this is but a dream.

But you have found her!

Nothing has happened!

Custine!

Let me pass!

Sir, sir...

it's a pity you're not here with me.

You would understand everything.

Look.

The sea is all around.

We are destined to sail forever.

To live forever.
