This film is exceptionally compelling and phenomenally acted; but the subject matter is so thoroughly depressing and horrifying that it left us wondering if the experience of watching it was actually one we'd rather have gone without.
16 year-old Lilya lives in a poor and dreary suburb somewhere in the former Soviet Union. She dreams of a better life. Her mother has moved to the States with a new man and Lilya is waiting to be sent for. When no letter or money arrive from her mother, it becomes obvious that Lilya has been abandoned. She's forced to move into a tiny, run-down flat with no electricity or heating. Heartbroken and without money, Lilya's situation becomes desperate. Her only friend is the 11 year-old boy Volodya, who sometimes is allowed to sleep on her sofa. They hang around together and fantasize to make life a little easier. One day, hope arrives when Lilya falls in love with Andrei. He asks her to follow him to Sweden to start a new life. Little Volodya is jealous and suspicious--but Lilya packs her things...
