Siberian Love © DOPPELPLUSULTRA FILM

A film by Olga Delane
Duration: 79 minutes/ Year: 2016/ Language: Russian with English subtitles

Synopsis:

What does a woman need to be happy and fulfilled? After 20 years of living in Berlin, the director Olga Delane goes back to her roots in a small Siberian village, where she is confronted with traditional views of relationships, life and love. The man is the master in the home; the woman’s task is to beget children and take care of the household (and everything else, too). Siberian Love provides unrivalled insights into the (love) life of a Siberian village and seeks the truth around the universal value of traditional relationships.
A freezing quest for love in rural Siberia. 

“Siberian Love” was internationally premiered in at the International Documentary Filmfestival Amsterdam (IDFA) in 2016.
