🎬 Movie

Alexey returns to his hometown after a ten-year absence. He comes not by choice—his father's death forces him to deal with an inheritance consisting of a dilapidated house and debts. Meeting his former love Katya, now married with a child, opens old wounds. Alexey tries to find levers to control his life but realizes the past holds him tighter than he assumed. The 2025 drama explores the impossibility of escaping oneself and one's roots. The director focuses on silent scenes where tension is conveyed through glances and pauses rather than dialogue. The film becomes a story about how we try to change our fate using the very tools that once broke us.
