Street people. Kravtsova I.

All the homeless people you see on the street were once domestic people. They drank tea in the morning, went to school and to work, went on vacation every summer, went to bed in a clean bed and were sure of tomorrow. And then something broke. In each story, this “breakdown” has its own: the employer’s fraud, cruel parents, ungrateful children or greedy relatives. Someone manages to cope with such hardships, but some do not succeed-and they find themselves on the street.

Graphic report “Street People” is one of the few attempts to debunk the myth of homelessness as another measurement in which There are - purposeful, smart, strong, and they are lazy and limp. The frank stories of the homeless Sasha, Ani, Denis and many others will not leave anyone indifferent and at least for a moment they will return the human face to those whom we are used to not noticing. And the valuable advice of volunteers will tell you what to do if you want to help.

Irina Kravtsova has repeatedly turned to this difficult topic. Now - along with the illustrator Albina Shaikhutdinova. Together they created an extremely sharp and extraordinary graphic report on the life of homeless people. “Street people” were included in the short list of the Moscow International Comics Festival “Commission” in 2021

“KOMPAPAGID” continues to raise socially significant topics and say that he worries many modern people. Now - in an unusual graphic report format.
