Light

On the threshold of her sixtieth birthday Tatiana, a social worker living in a large Siberian city, is getting ready to celebrate her anniversary. Her son and distant relatives are expected to arrive. Parallel to her everyday life, we observe the story of one summer from Tatyana’s past, when she was eighteen. Early 1970s, the same city, USSR. These two parallel stories develop alongside each other without directly coming together until the climax when Tatyana unexpectedly encounters her past, that she had always struggled to forget. This confrontation will make her look back and contemplate the life she has lived.
