Written & Directed - Karolina Malinowska Cinematography - Denis Pershin Editing - Natasha Sena Cast - Anna Yakunina, Ilya Semenov, Svetlana Miletskaya
On the day of her father's wake, Olga isn't ready to say goodbye. So she builds her own quiet ritual for keeping him close. One that blurs the line between memory and presence. It traces a child's psychology as it bends grief into something stranger, more tender than mourning. Awakened is a portrait of a child's grief. Shaped by a single idea: that death is only leaving one room and entering another.
