Diada
Dyad
Trailer
The life of the rebellious Dida is marked by precarious conditions, violence and massive problems at school. But she has a dream: a new life with her mother, who lives in the USA. A cheap ticket to New York becomes her obsession, and Dida fights tooth and nail for every cent. But a cruel revelation throws Dida's life into chaos, and the pain drives her to an unimaginable act. Yana Titova mercilessly sends us into the dark reality of an unloved child. In the process, she stages a colourful and at the same time ice-cold world in which dreams become nightmares and the search for identity leads to self-destruction. A memorial of a film about a youth without God.
