I am a Simple Man
Gleb Terjokhín is a Russian bus driver who dreamed of moving to Iceland in search of a better life. He wrote several letters in bad Icelandic to newspapers and magazines in Iceland, in search of work and a woman to marry. A group of artists recognized Gleb’s letters as the expression of a true court jester, one who plays his role to escape the limits of his reality and get what he wants.
