RUSSIAN FILM FESTIVAL
THREE MINUTES OF SILENCE
When two spoiled hipsters embark on the rusty trawler for a summer internship, they get much more than what they bargained for. This shabby boat is the floating home of a dozen weary and irritable sailors, whose only priority is making money and not getting killed in the process. Ice-cold waves, incredibly beautiful but severe seascapes, hard labour and tons of stinking fish is the daily menu. The sea is unpredictable, and the upcoming storm is not the main test that awaits the ship's crew. Their trip to sea, however, turns out to be more serious and more tragic than either of them could have imagined.
