BEHIND THE SCENES, 2016

"Leica Oskar Barnack Award Newcomer 2017" winning series by Sergey Melnitchenko shows us transvestites, girls bathing in tubs of beer, drunk actors and even more drunk visitors.
All of this – Chinese club where he was working as a dancer.
This is the reverse, the invisible side of the club.
At this behind the scenes there is more burlesque than on the stage, the concentration of sexual fluids is more powerful than oxygen.
It’s not a scene, it's - life.
