Synopsis

This film invites you to sit with Tamara as she celebrates her 77th birthday and sips liqueur with her delightful friends. The film offers a brief glimpse into this lively group of elderly Russian immigrants and reveals the tender, familiar love between Tamara and her husband Alexander. It is a commentary on the strength of immigrant communities in Winnipeg and the complicated relationships between family members.
