Baboussia
 

An eternal story of the ingratitude of the young to the old, unfolding in an area of current social transformation in northern Russia. Although kindly grandma Tusya raised her grandkids and gave them a start in life by selling her house, when she’s in need they refuse to provide her with shelter. She spends her only happy days with her sister Anna in the country.
