Short handwritten note by Vertov, in which he describes "the synthetic cinema of the future", which, among other things, strives to transcend the boundary between auditorium and screen. Vertov mentions the names of three innovators: he praises the inventor of the "stereo camera", Semen Ivanov, the director Aleksandr Andrievskij and the camera operator Dmitrij Surenskij for their contribution to the technical development of stereo cinema.
