Самая лёгкая лодка в мире (2026)

A charmingly offbeat voyage unfolds in this feature film inspired by Yuri Koval’s novella, blending whimsy with a touch of the surreal as a handcrafted boat drifts through the waterways of the Vologda region. The narrative weaves two interlocking threads: one follows the book’s protagonist on a ridiculous yet strangely transcendent odyssey through rural rivers, bogs, and sleepy hamlets, where the absurd gives way to the mystical. The other peels back the layers via a student theater troupe staging Koval’s tale, uncovering the deeper backstory—how a restless soul in Moscow became consumed by the urge to escape, leaving friends and city life behind for the wild, quiet depths of nature.
