A traumatised refugee has fled to London. But when the war
is over
the nightmares begin.
Lydia has come to London. She wants to lose herself in urban
anonymity; fade into the background of city life. She wants
to forget the atrocities of the war she has left behind in
her homeland, Yugoslavia. Her nightmares are filled with
the horror of this war and, tortured by these nightmares,
she is pushed to the edge of madness. But she is waiting.
She waits to be followed. She knows he will find her and
she waits to be found....
As children, Lydia and her twin brother Stefan, were witness
to the murder of their parents; Lydia turned to the church
and nunhood, Stefan to the gun and the ways of the devil.
But Stefan, now a wanted war criminal, has disappeared off
the face of the earth.
By day, Lydia makes frequent visits to Father Ignatius,
seeking forgiveness for her brother's sins. By night, she
is consumed by the vileness of these sins. She seeks peace
and an end to the terror, to the waiting. But there are others
she must deal with before the pain and suffering can end.
A soul searching film exploding with rich imagery, pain and elation.
Is there salvation? Can there be peace after inhuman devastation? |
