Overview
In the second feature film by Russian director Vasily Sigarev, fate brings ordeals to characters that find themselves immersed in deep crisis; they must seek the strength to cope with adversity. In a remote and cold region of Russia, Galya, a middle-aged woman with a drinking problem, has been separated from her twin daughters and she wants them back. On the other hand, Grishka and Anton are a young couple who decide to get married, but right after the wedding their relationship is put to the test in a brutal way. While Artyom longs to see his missing father, but his mother objects. There is only one element that brings all of these characters together: misfortune.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A sparse, unflinching portrait of ordinary people enduring accumulated hardship in a desolate Russian landscape. This is cinema about suffering as a shared condition, where small mercies are as rare as warmth.
