Granny (Babusja)
The story of granny Tosia who is a huge burden to everyone in her old
age. After caring for her sick daughter and her drunken and unemployed grandson
for years, her daughter-in-law arrives out of nowhere and granny, who once
defended Stalingrad, has to move to her
sister's. But she can't live at her place either and so she looks for
hospitality with various family members, who in the new capitalist Russia
have neither time nor understanding for her. She feels most warmth in a refugee
family from Chechnya.
