Damaged Lives

Extremists In the forest of Karelia, local pensioners, who have been dubbed "Sun partisans", have been living in tents for several months, replacing each other. These people do not allow you to cut down the forest in which they have been collecting mushrooms and berries for decades. For some time now, the entire life of the "Sunsk partisans" has been spent in the forest, where a real headquarters has developed - here journalists come to them, here they are waiting for news from the court... And on February 8, representatives of the HRC arrived in Sunsky Bor.

I Must Tell The film is a monologue by Masha Rolnikaite (1927-2016), the author of the famous diary book "I Must Tell", who survived the nightmares of the ghettos and death camps in her youth.

Life Through Windows Thanks to the peculiarities of their place of residence, the characters of this film observe life in its various manifestations. Everyone has their own landscape outside the window. Some live in front of the maternity hospital and daily pay attention to the color of the balls in the sky-blue or pink (a boy was born or a girl). Others wake up every weekend to shouts of "bitter!" and popping champagne - their windows overlook the registry office. And someone constantly has to watch a sad cemetery picture...

Sanya the Stoker The film tells about a short period of life of a talented person-a musician, a poet, who once studied to be a director, who can not overcome his weaknesses and always balances on the edge.

Mission This film was shot in an amazing place - in the very north of Transbaikalia, in the Chara basin, surrounded by the peaks of Kodar, Udokan and Kalar ridge. Since ancient times, only Evenks and reindeer herds roamed here. Civilization came here only in the middle of the twentieth century-for the first Soviet uranium, which was extracted by the Borlag prisoners, and for the copper of the unique Udokan deposit... But what brought our contemporaries-the heroes of this film-here? Who are they? What trials, sins, and memories do each of them bear? What do they (and any of us) have?) A mission?
