No river in Kazakhstan reaches the ocean, but the voices of the women along the river merge into a sea of voices in River Dreams.

We are delighted that RIVER DREAMS by Kristina Mikhailova will celebrate its world premiere at the Berlinale Forum. The director immerses herself in the emotional landscape of Kazakhstan with radical tenderness and follows the voices of women along the river. They have all just turned 30: an age when it becomes clear that no one is coming to save you. A debut film that combines poetry and political urgency.

The world premiere will take place on February 18 at 1:00 p.m. at Zoo Palast 2, followed by a second screening on February 19 at 9:00 p.m. at Delphi Filmpalast.

We look forward to seeing you at the Berlinale!
