I won't come back



Ilmar Raag : 2014
Ya ne vernus

Anya, an aloof and love-spurned graduate student, is on the run from the police, falsely accused of committing a crime. Her teenage looks help her to hide in a orphanage without arousing any suspicion. Whilst there she encounters Kristina, a 13-year-old homeless person like herself, who is determined to find the only family she has left. When Kristina offers Anya a solution to her desperate situation, Anya reluctantly agrees. Together they embark on a harrowing and unpredictable odyssey, hitchhiking across the intimidating Russian terrain, to a small town in Kazakhstan where Kristina's grandmother lives. A visceral look at survival, the exploration of friendship and the meaning of acceptance. Ilmar Raag's fifth feature received its international premiere at Tribeca Film Festival 2014.
