I am Europe.
I am the Empire.
And this is a Doric Column.
We enter a deserted battlefield. Below us creaks
the sound of a town in Russia. Two blonde teenagers
recade disciplined into the background like quiet lines on
a map. Two women stand avert, braiding their hair in
preparation for another battle. They will conquer
Russia.They will map out and explain the
world´s largest country.
