In 1986, the largest work of art in Europe, the Wall of Memory, was illegally destroyed in Kiev, and along with it, the names of its two authors, Ada Rybachuk and Vladimir Melnichenko, were erased from the history of art. For many years this story has been kept in the strictest confidence and is known only to a narrow circle of the creative elite. All attempts by the authors to achieve justice and to be heard only lead to even greater resistance from the authorities against them. Their names are gradually crossed out under all major works, from the lists of Ukrainian artists, and to top it off, in 2004, their studio was illegally written off and tried to be taken away. This incident leaves a final imprint on Ada's health, and with the words “I can no longer be in this circular lie, probably, I will leave you alone, perhaps you alone will be able to do what we both failed to do” - Ada dies. For 7 years, the film crew has been watching how this story develops, the courage of Vladimir, who, despite his old age and other difficulties, continues his struggle, in the name of Ada and their joint creativity, and how he, as a result, with the participation of a new generation, achieves colossal results.

Reality is that which is missing the most. An émigré film is acutely aware of the rupture of ties with the usual reality, at the same time it creates a new one and immerses itself in it. The film is in search of a hybrid genre, it presses the boundaries of video art and cinema. At the same time, Émigré explores the possibility of film as a form of literature. Based on the émigré diary tradition, the film creates a visual sequence that is transparent just enough that the past shines through it and superimposed on images of the present. This is how a certain synopsis is created, a summary of not a movie, but a segment of life. The characters in the film talk about their deeply personal traumas in front of the camera, and the experience of these traumas becomes their new reality. This is a film that could not be made, but could be found by its characters. Such a film cannot have a director or actors, only accomplices and victims. Development not only in content, but also in the perception of the image itself, the static nature of photography, the contemplativeness of video are mixed with traditional cinema tools. The film shows the figure of political silence. In the political field, the film speaks of those events that are no longer possible to remain silent, but it is still impossible to speak out. And the more Émigré resists the narrative, the more it sinks into it.

On August 25, 1968, Soviet dissident Victor Fainberg joined seven other USSR citizens in the Red Square Demonstration to protest the Soviet-led invasion of Czechoslovakia. They were known as the "Magnificent Eight." Fainberg paid for his “five minutes of freedom” on the Red Square with 5 1/2 years of confinement and torture in a Soviet "mental hospital". From the crushing of the Prague Spring (1968) to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine (2022), Fainberg’s insider testimony on the price and triumph of resistance to evil takes us on a breathtaking journey into the madness and hopes of contemporary Russia.
