One of Many Suppers

Anna sets three plates on the table, though she's lived alone in the apartment for a week. This ritual repeats every evening — preparing dinner for absent people. The young woman tries to maintain the illusion of normal life after losing her family. Her days are filled with work at the archive, where she organizes other people's photographs, avoiding her own. The quiet 2025 drama explores the mechanisms of grief and the ways memory becomes both prison and salvation. Director Katerina Volkova creates an intimate story about learning to live with emptiness, finding meaning in the smallest repetitive actions. The film balances between documentary observation and poetic statement, showing how personal sorrow transforms into universal experience.
