March 19 – Won’t Come Back

Monday, March 19, 5:00pm, UNC Charlotte main campus, COED 010

Ilmar Raag, Russia, Estonia, Finland, Belorussia, Kazakhstan, 2014/ 109 min

Russian with English subtitles

Made possible with the support of the On-Campus Event Grant awarded to the UNC
Charlotte Russian Club.

Introduction by Kate Skorodinskaya, Lecturer of Russian, UNC Charlotte. Discussion
will follow screening.

Anya is a good-looking, successful young graduate student. She gives lectures on
Byron and has a relationship with one of the professors. One day her life takes an
unexpected turn for the worse. A victim of false accusations, she has to flee, disguised
as a teenaged homeless girl. While on the run, Anya meets twelve-year- old Christine,
an orphan who is as desperate and reckless as Anya herself. This friendship becomes a
turning point for Anya — reliving her adolescence for the second time, she now is forced
to rewrite her life.

Won’t Come Back

“Ilmar Raag’s story builds on the genre of the road movie while elegantly incorporating
some of the bittersweet elements of the domestic drama, thus creating a unique, heart-
rending and adventurous mixture.

Anna Batori, KinoKultura, 2015
