Sister
Directed by Aleksandr Galibin
Produced by Motor! Film Studio
A tender yet sorrowful portrait of two children forging an unlikely bond amid the deprivations and uncertainties of wartime, learning care and responsibility in the absence of their father.
How many Yamil remembers himself, war has always been. He is very much waiting for it to end - after all, then the father will return, whom the boy knows only from photographs and letters. One day, Mom leaves for a distant city and brings the silent girl Oksana with her. Mum transmits the order of his father to take care of Oksana, as if he was a little sister ... A film adaptation of the story “The Joy of Our Home” by the classic of Soviet literature Mustay Karim.
