Mourning his boyfriend Frédéric's death from an overdose, the French filmmaker David Teboul goes to Siberia on a ritual journey. Out here, under the enormous dome of the skies, he finds the free space to disentangle his thoughts again. And in the villages, both young and old people unexpectedly turn out to be prepared to respond to his invitation to talk about an event that changed their lives. Life, death, love and existence.

[Sheffield/Doc] It is a mourning process turned into cinema. Guilt for the death of the loved one becomes the engine of a search for other love stories. Like Chris Marker in "Lettre de Sibérie" (1958), the destination is "nothing but a frozen devil's island". There are beautiful poetic images, slow pans over director's words, fragments of lives that are nearing the end. A painful journey through failure to be loved.
