Contents/Summary

Summary
How is it possible to feel someone else’s pain? The hero of this film is an autistic boy. His life is divided between an apartment on the outskirts of Saint Petersburg and a mental hospital. The distance between the protagonists and the filmmaker shrinks with every passing minute, and the director herself becomes a character in the story. The stunning debut of Russian film critic Lyubov Arkus follows Anton Kharitonov through a variety of traumas and institutions, encompassing not just his parents, caregivers and friends, but also the film crew. Anton's Right Here is a first-person documentary which exposes the inadequacies of care-provision in a Russia where mental disorders are still a source of considerable social stigma.
