Abstract:

One of the most acclaimed films of 2011, SILENT SOULS is a breathtakingly beautiful road-movie masterpiece. After the sudden death of his wife, tough guy Miron asks taciturn writer Aist to accompany him on a long journey to dispose of her remains according to the rituals of the Merya people-an ancient tribe from picturesque West-Central Russia. As the two friends traverse the evocatively bleak landscape with her body and a pair of caged birds, Miron fills the hours relating the most intimate details of his marriage-with unintended consequences. Winner of five awards, including the FIPRESCI Prize and the Golden Osella Award for Outstanding Technical Contribution at the **Venice International Film Festival.** *"An astonishing, haunting, sensual, lyrical, bleak and ultimately beautiful road-trip movie." - David Lewis, **San Francisco Chronicle***
