Path of hate

A short tale about the demons that slumber deep in the human soul and have the power to push people into the abyss of blind hate, fury and rage.

Director's statement

I wanted to make a film that would, most of all, be entertaining, spectacular and visually attractive for a viewer. On the other hand, I wanted "Paths of Hate" to be more than yet another show-off of technical capabilities, filled with huge fighting robots or trolls. I decided that the illustration of one of humanity's fundamental problems – a tendency for pointless hate – would be an ideal choice. "Paths of Hate" is an audiovisual creation in the fullest meaning of the word. I design my films from the very beginning, assuming that music and sound are no less than a half of the final effect.
