Moth

Three generations of the family lived all together. But then everything changed. The grandma remained alone, her granddaughter visits her less and less and her daughter doesn’t see her at all. A moth appears in the flat of the old woman and it is impossible to get rid of her. Because the moth is the loneliness.

Directed by Alexey Frenkel, Moth leans on a strong ensemble — Roza Khairullina, Svetlana Pervushina, Oleg Mazurov — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2019.
