The dacha is a space in-between. Neither town nor country. It goes beyond a summer dwelling.
It is a mentality, an institution - one that has been growing since the 17th century, survived all the crises Russia has been through, and is
still an essential part of Russian culture and society.
In the small universe of the dacha people enter this state of in-between: The daily struggle put on pause.
