About
'Didar is a poet chained to his day job in a small newspaper. But in the age of mass consumption very few still care about poetry. While reading about a famous Kazakh poet from the 19th century who was executed by the authorities, he feels deeply shaken, realizing how difficult and fragile the life of a poet always has been. When Didar is invited to give a reading in a small town, he finds himself torn between pain and joy, his accomplishments and failures.' Alfama Films
