DAU. NATASHA

Synopsis

Natasha runs the canteen at a secret 1950s Soviet research institute. This is the beating heart of the DAU universe, everyone drops in here: the institute’s employees, scientists and visiting foreign guests. Natasha’s world is a small one, split between the demands of the canteen during the day and alcohol-fuelled nights with her younger colleague Olga, during which the two confide their hopes of romance and for a different future. At a party one evening Natasha becomes close to visiting French scientist Luc Bigé and the two sleep together. The following day her life takes a dramatic turn when she is summoned to an interrogation by the KGB’s General Vladimir Azhippo who questions the nature of her relationship with the foreign guest.
