Kristus elab Siberis

Danial, Mariam and Zaur lived in St. Petersburg with their mother Sveta and father Magomed. One day, the mother took her three children and moved to the Vissarionites community far in Siberia. This is the world’s largest sect, detached from civilization, gathered around their teacher Vissarion, the reborn Jesus Christ. After a year the mother married a vissarionite bell ringer Dmitri, who became the children’s stepfather. Danial’s, Mariam’s and Zaur’s real father have struggled for years to get his children back. Film director Arbo Tammiksaar moved with his family to Siberia for about a year, to live in the Vissarionites village. The style of the film is observing documentary in it’s purest form. Without any comments from the author. We follow the characters lives and their relations with their parents and the teacher, their friends and playmates in this isolated place in the middle of the Siberian taiga. (Estonian Film Institute)
