Past Perfect

Zhenya is used to living without relying on anyone. She has only one friend, she hardly ever talks to her mother, and she hasn’t seen her father in a long time.

However, her grandfather’s death opens up a wound that has been festering in her family for a long time and pushes her into the very epicenter of the drama.

It seems that the only one who understands her is her younger sister Lika. In an attempt to build a closer relationship with her, Zhenya promises to find her grandfather’s lost photos. They are the last keys to peace of mind and preserving the fading memory.

To find them, the girl has to enlist the help of her aunt, find her father, and reveal to her mother the emotions that Zhenya has been hiding for so long.

But unable to find the photos, Zhenya finds herself at a crossroads: reveal the whole secret to her sister or create a beautiful lie for her: an image of a grandfather who never existed.

Directed by Maria Besedova (Russia)
