In the Forest of Siberia
Rendez-Vous with French Cinema 2017
March 1 - 12, 2017
This gripping true-life tale of survival—about a young Frenchman’s attempts to survive in the icy wilderness of Siberia—captures both the desolate beauty and harsh struggle of existence at the edge of the world.
Based on the award-winning memoir by adventurer Sylvain Tesson, this tale of survival follows Teddy (Raphaël Personnaz), a young Frenchman who leaves everything behind to live in isolation in the icy Siberian taiga. But initial exhilaration soon gives way to the harsh reality of staying alive in a frozen wilderness miles from civilization with roaming bears, life-threatening blizzards, and no electricity. The film captures majestic footage of the unspoiled Siberian landscape, its bleak beauty underscored by jazz trumpeter Ibrahim Maalouf’s plaintive soundtrack.
