Synopsis

1919, Russian Civil War. Siberia was united under the rule of the White Guard General Kolchak. Unwilling to recognize his power, 32 common villages from the Yenisei province declare themselves the independent Soviet Badja Republic. The Badja guerrillas, led by the hero of the WWI Pyotr Shchetinkin, quickly become a serious enemy for the White Guard.

Mood and atmosphere

Immerse yourself in a hauntingly beautiful tapestry of resilience and rebellion, where the raw landscapes of Siberia echo with the whispers of history. This film unfolds like a slow, contemplative journey through a winter-worn world, invoking feelings of loneliness intertwined with hope. The stark, cold visuals are complemented by warm, flickering flames of camaraderie and defiance, capturing the essence of small-town life against the backdrop of a tumultuous era. Themes of identity and freedom pulse through the narrative, creating a poignant atmosphere that resonates with those seeking a contemplative experience that challenges the spirit and awakens the soul, reminiscent of the 90s indie films infused with a sense of nostalgia and longing for a lost past.
