Instead he finds her twin sister, the taxi driver Jana, held hostage by her own past in the Ukrainian city of Lviv, and Ignaz, a hapless East German caught on the wrong foot by the advent of the post-communist era. On the run from the snares of intimacy, they embark on an odyssey of the emotions which continues until the Blue Moon rises over distant Odessa.Andrea Maria Dusl's début feature film is a modern-day tale of love between East and West; a road movie set in countries that for decades were hidden from view behind the Iron Curtain. -- © Lotus Films
