Dorotchka

Dorotchka
Director: Olga Delane
DE 201827' ru

In the Siberian countryside, marriage is traditionally seen as the greatest happiness for a woman. But the 80-year-old Dorotchka has always remained alone. At the kitchen table, she contemplates life, love, regret and loneliness – has she may be brought this fate upon herself?

Olga Delane was born in Siberia. At the age of 16, she moved to Germany with her family. The director explores the views of Siberian people on life, love and marriage.

Curator's point of view: European director Olga Delan is not ready to tear herself away from her roots. The main value of the film is the story about her returning to them.
