By Means Unknown
Film
Leningrad, 1942. Amidst the siege, a man hauls a mysterious suitcase through the ruins. Years earlier, avant-garde writer Daniil Kharms navigates a world where his dark, nonsensical tales—from falling old women to disappearing suitcases—start to manifest. As the NKVD closes in, the line between his fiction and the brutal state reality blurs, leading to a tragic end and a miraculous legacy.
