Umid Khamdamov

A dying woman’s wish sends her son on a train journey from the steppes of Uzbekistan to the Russian hinterland in search of his father’s grave. Just as the traveler’s home city of Samarkand is situated on the border between East and West, Khamraev balances his film on the edge of two cultures, evoking the soul of Russia and the crumbling beauty of what was once the Silk Road.

An honest craftsman sacrifices years of savings meant for Hajj with his wife to help his late friend’s homeless family. His selfless act leads to envy, false accusations, and tests his faith and integrity.
