Synopsis

Lada Kamenski is a seamstress in a failing Eastern European textile factory. Factory is slowly shutting down and Lada and her colleagues are losing everything they worked for their entire lives. Three middle-aged actresses are facing an opportunity of a lifetime: playing a leading role in a movie about Lada's struggle. For them this tragedy is a gift of canvass on which they would finally prove their talent and craft. Feminist issues clash with existential struggle, with a dash of complex human pathology. Only one woman will keep her job. Only one woman will seize the opportunity. Who is the real Lada, after all?
