Siberia and Him

Original title: Сибирь и он

“Two men fall in love in a run-down town of Siberia, Russia.”

Directed by Viatcheslav Kopturevskiy

Meek farmhand Sasha and policeman Dima have a fraught relationship. They’re brothers-in-law, travel companions, and⁠—secretly⁠—lovers. Over the course of their journey to visit Sasha’s grandmother, unspoken truths are uttered, intimacy is built, and authenticity is challenged. Although they may be far from the peering eyes of their oppressive society, their relationship teeters on a dangerous precipice.
