Synopsis
Moving closer to the urban centers of Russia, Dvortsevoy turns his
camera on an elderly blind man living alone in the suburbs of Moscow. His one companion is a clever white cat who continually frustrates his work netting the string bags that he takes to the street to give away to passers-by. Unrelenting in its gaze and simple in its approach, In the Dark quietly reveals the profound pathos of solitude and isolation with humanity and tenderness.
