Tanya Chekhova / Germany / 2024 / 80 min

Renowned Russian physics professor Vladimir Fridkin lives in Moscow, where he is caught between two worlds: the isolation of authoritarian Russia and his Western values. The large-scale invasion of Ukraine has permanently separated the 94-year-old from his family there. Filmed by his granddaughter over six years, this touching video diary is full of charm, humour, and thoughtful conversations. The film follows Vladimir between longing, science, and (grand)dad jokes as he makes a final attempt to reunite with his family.
