"...this book was rather filmed than written, questions in hundreds of interviews arose 'in motion' – on the go, sometimes in the struggle with festival noise... And for the essence necessary for the printed word to settle in these conversations, to filter out the television bustle, it took a considerable amount of time. But the main need was to express – no longer in the frame, but in words – at least in the very first approximation – what the poet called 'the only news'. It, talent, is indeed always new – long before Godard's journey through Trubnaya in 1992 – and now, yes, and always".
