synopsis

The story of a Russian family living on the outskirts of Moscow. They are mired in family quarrels, live in discomfort, drowning in oppressive atmosphere, spit their negative emotions on each other, forgetting about love, forgetting who they are to each other, forgetting about compassion and God. A tragedy will cause them to wake up, change and experience catharsis, but it will be too late.​
