Synopsis
Truck driver Georgy sets out on a provincial Russian highway for a routine delivery, but a series of chance encounters see his journey spiral out of control. A roadside police check, a war veteran, and a young prostitute lead him to a village from which there appears to be no way out—where the locals struggle to survive a tough, elemental world, and the past holds a grip on their everyday lives. Caught in a merciless dead end, Georgy’s unexpected fate is the crux of award-winning documentarian Sergei Loznitsa’s feature debut. Based on true stories the director encountered during his decade-long pilgrimage by road through Russia.
