“Super-turbo-overdrive” - this is what journalist and music critic Felix Sandalov, the author of introductory texts to already several books of Igor Mukhin, means everything that happens on the pages of “Weekend”. The most famous Russian invisible photo-harp managed to capture the Dionysian wave of all genres and trends, covering the audience with the two thousandth festivals “Invasion”, “Empty Hills”, “Picnic Posters”, open-airs, flash mobs of all sorts and so on. and so on. Moreover, to capture the audience very different in spirit and social status at the time of its maximum “openness” (the term criticism of Alexandra Novozhenova), readiness to look at the camera as if under no other circumstances.

The book includes footage shot by Mukhin from 2005 to 2016 at countless carnivals of everyday life, from beer festivals in Tushino to informal gatherings in the fresh air on the roof of an “abandoned” town center.
