Plot

Fed up with the hectic, senseless world he lives in, Teddy decides to settle down alone in Siberia, in the midst of winter, in a hut by the shore of Lake Baikal.

Sinekatalog’s take

A burned-out man settles alone beside Lake Baikal in winter. Beautiful photography and an unhurried rhythm make this a meditative survival tale. Soothing and absorbing for nature lovers.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
