Family Instinct<br />
Alcohol, violence and extreme poverty make the remote Latvian countryside a living hell. When Zanda’s<br />
incestuous brother is sent to jail for abusing their children, the young mother attempts to escape the vicious circle.<br />
A family-portrait like you’ve never seen before… shocking, surreal and stunning. A pure cinematic masterpiece<br />
and a synonym for the cruel rural realities in the post-Soviet era.<br />
