Further and Further

Now in his mid 90s, renowned Russian physics professor Vladimir Fridkin lives in Moscow trying to navigate between two polarized worlds: an authoritarian and disconnected Russia and his Western values. The full-scale invasion of Ukraine has permanently separated Vladimir from his daughter and grandchildren, who he is deeply attached to. Feeling consigned to oblivion, and in a tumultuous relationship with his wife, he swings between fatalism and optimism. Longing to see his loved ones forces the 94 year-old to embark upon a taxing journey which could be his last. Filmed through the lens of his granddaughter, Further and Further is an emotional and intimate film about family separation full of love and humor.
