Ksenia Pakhomova Analog Photography/Videography/Direction 

I was born in Ulan-Ude, a small town in Siberia near the lake Baikal.

Unable to find the growth and acceptance I was searching for, I packed my bags at the age of 16 and left home—first moving to a big city, then leaving Russia entirely at 19. For three years, I traveled with no fixed destination, making my way through Georgia, Turkey, and across Europe. I lived out of a backpack, constantly on the move, exploring new places and meeting new people. 

After completing my film studies and settling in Berlin, I now work primarily as a writer, director, and director of photography.
