Dir. Mantas Kvedaravicius, produced by Aki Kaurismaki (Sputnik OY)and Iikka Vehkalahti (YLE TV2 ). Expected release: Autumn, 2010.
In a Chechen city recovering after the war a man disappears. As daily life goes by, those in search are drawn into the world where encounters with diviners and legal advisors, with torturers and tortured, with secret prisons and mythical lakes, become commonplace. When the disappeared do return in dreams, they are said to come from Barzakh – a land between the living and the dead.
