• description: Video Running Time: 16 minutes A travelogue from Kiev, Ukraine taking place two years after The Orange Revolution. The videos premise is a tourist asking Ukrainians what it was like to participate in the Orange Revolution. Responses to the actual question were vague yet revealing of a cultural climate of constant political unrest. In the video, younger and older generations give starkly contrasting viewpoints and problems with translation metaphorically demonstrate the shortcomings in trying to understand a revolution from outside.
