In the summer of 2005, while working on a documentary in the Swedish Lapland, I tested my Kiev 16u, a Soviet 16mm camera I found in an old market in Tallinn. Unfortunately, the camera didn't perform as expected and the result was a veil of mosquitoes and blurred images. I wanted to share it anyway. As William Klein once said: "Blur is part of life".
