How to Save a Dead Friend

Original title: Как спасти мёртвого друга

• Documentaire
• Drame

Directed by Marusya Syroechkovskaya

Une lutte acharnée entre pulsions de vie et de mort, liberté et oppression

Marusya is 16 and, like many Russian teenagers, is determined to end her life. Then she meets her soulmate in another millennial, Kimi. They spend a decade filming the euphoria and anxiety, the happiness and misery of their youth, muzzled by a violent and autocratic regime in the midst of a “depressed Russia”. This film is a cry from the heart, a tribute to an entire silenced generation.
