Yuri's Day

Russia, 2008, 137 min
Dir. Kirill Serebrennikov
Lubov, a world famous opera diva, arrives in her native town of Youriev-Polskii in order to show it to her teenage son before they both leave Russia for Europe. During one of their visits to a local Kremlin, Lubov’s son mysteriously disappears.

Nirvana

20 Cigarettes

Russia, 2007, 90 min

Cruelty

Dir. Marina Liubakova
Zoya is a successful but lonely business woman in her thirties. Vika is a teenage girl longing for independence. Her favourite pastime is photographing the life in the windows of a neighbouring house. One day, her photograph captures an intimate encounter between Zoya and her married lover.

Best of Times

Russia, 2007, 93 min
Dir. Svetlana Proskurina
The narrative in Svetlana Proskurina's latest film is deceptively simple. Two middle-aged women, Katia and Valia, are looking back on a distant youth in which, together with a man called Valentin, they formed a tragic love triangle.

Simple Things

Russia, 2007, 110 min
Dir. Alexei Popogrebsky

12

Russia, 2007, 153 min
Dir. Nikita Mikhalkov

Terra Nova

Russia, 2008, 140 min
