Synopsis

What begins as a road trip doco becomes a shockingly intimate on-camera portrait of a disintegrating relationship.

Art actually is life in Sibérie, the confronting and unflinchingly honest new film from actor-director Joana Preiss. As Preiss and her lover, acclaimed French director Bruno Dumont, embark on a train journey across the Trans-Siberian Railway, they bring along two video cameras to document their travels. But rather than the expected portrait of a happy couple, the cameras instead capture the sharp and unexpected dissolution of their relationship.

Intensely personal and stylistically unadorned, Sibérie is a relationship drama of exceedingly raw nature. Filmed entirely by Joana and Bruno and capturing much more than traditional documentaries ever could, their break-up becomes a piercing psychological meditation on love, attachment and the inescapable eye of the camera. –BIFF.com.au
