Good Girl / Umnitsa

2026 | Fiction | 5 min. | Russia

«Good Girl»— is a one-shot film about how love, fear, and motherhood intertwine into a single knot. The protagonist stands on the threshold of freedom but stays — for the sake of her child and against her own instincts — because her love for her husband proves stronger than the urge to flee. The entire story unfolds in real time over just a few minutes, playing out entirely on her face, which becomes a battlefield between duty, attachment, and self-preservation. The film does not offer answers — it asks a question: where is the line between love and dependency?
