What happened to Lina Mkrtchyan, a unique singer who in the 1990s was the first in post-Soviet Russia to sing in the Vatican and to sell out in the best concert halls in the world? Sokurov said about her that he could not live with such a huge gift. So she failed, taking a kind of vow of public singing silence.
