Creation

Overview

In the village of Slavkovo in the Tver region, Valery Leonidovich Fomin has worked as a librarian for more than 30 years. Over that time, he created his own local history museum within the library. Built — and later restored by his own efforts after a fire — the museum has become a visible testament to how one person can resist oblivion, patiently collecting fragments of the past and preserving the tangible image of a disappearing time. Yet a new era continues to reshape both life itself and our perception of the past and the future.
