other title: 希望工厂 / Комбинат «Надежда» …
Industrial city of Norilsk: factories, cold, chemical air. The only desire of young people living here is to leave, against all odds. A docu-style, emotionally-driven drama about a young girl desperately fighting for an escape which is so blurry, and for love which is so insecure. Due to its vast industrial areas and enormous industrial output, the Russian city of Norilsk has become one of the most polluted places in the world. However, despite the persistent ecological crisis, the severe northern climate and harsh living conditions, life goes on there in its own extreme, as well as routine, way. But the will to live that such an existence fosters is actually the will, or rather the dream, to escape, especially for a young generation. A desperate, hardly possible dream that moves and traps its adherents, turning against them. Norilsk, with its arctic landscapes, huge factories, anonymous soviet architecture and post-soviet capitalism, is the gripping backdrop and important protagonist of The Hope Factory, the first feature by Natalia Meschaninova, a young filmmaker with an extensive background in documentaries. A dramatic coming-of-age story about two girls - two rivals who pursue the same goal of leaving their homeland but who take different steps to reach it, testing the blurring boundaries of morality and transgression. Restlessly shot on a hand-held camera and genuinely performed by mostly first-time actors, this kinetic docudrama nearly gets under the skin of its characters and raises universal issues about the 'age of blooming'.
