LILYA 4-EVER


2:30 p.m.

One of the most heart-rending films to come out of Sweden in years. Set in contemporary Russia, the film recounts 13-year-old Lilya's struggle to survive the grim Moscow streets. Devastating and completely convincing, the director oscillates between letting us gaze through Lilya's childlike naivete, and confronts the startlingly brutal and unvarnished use the world makes of her in this grim, courageous look at childhood.
