Still Life With Wife

An intimate portrait of husband and wife Titov, an Estonian couple
married for over twenty years who, despite constant quarrelling, still stick
together. His wife's sarcasm in a way inspires him to paint whilst she, despite
all his “imperfections”, admires his persistence in painting, although his
status as a self-taught painter doesn’t allow him to either exhibit or sell his
works. Partners discovered an ideal recipe for their relatively tranquil
co-existence: she lives in the apartment whilst he lives in a dacha where he
paints. They only meet on a few occasions but when they do they start fighting
immediately… (Simon Popek)
