The Diary
Denys is 14. He is loser in studies, but expert in DOTA. 'The school diary is your face', - teachers say to him. Every single pupil in post-Soviet states is familiar with this phrase. It means that the notebook with marks - is the projection of your personality. Denys thinks opposite. He records himself everyday and reflects on the things that really worry him. We are behind the scenes of the teenager`s life. The way of growing up - how it looks like?
