Something Better to Come (NR)

synopsis

Filmed over 14 years, this film tells an intimate story of 11-year-old Yula, who grows up in one of the most desolate places on Earth: the Svalka, the biggest junkyard in Europe which lies 20 km outside the center of Moscow. Surrounded by barbed wire and guards, the area is closely monitored to keep intruders out. But in the junkyard lives a group of people in a small, lawless society. These people make up Yula's closest family; here she lives her life, and from here her future springs.
