Synopsis
In the aftermath of committing a murder a young women is consuming man's brain in a hotel room in Kiev. Her act of cannibalism brings back traumatic memories which take us to the Red Forest near the abandoned town of Chernobyl in the Ukraine. The story relates through disturbing, visceral yet at the same time luxuriant imagery a depiction of humanity's deepest, darkest, and basest of instincts framed within the context of love story. It is a study of the psychopathology of young woman whose painful past leads her into committing an act of disturbed criminality. As with the horrific aftermath and social breakdown caused by the Chernobyl nuclear disaster the film is an account, and meditation upon emotional barbarism and the destruction of human relationships.
