Synopsis

Spoiler shield

“Homo Sperans” is a portrait of a Russian person composed of many images. The film's heroes are common men who answer with their lives the universal questions: what is the purpose of our existence, what is happiness, what is it to be a patriot. Their strength is in their ability to keep their chins up and always believe in a good outcome.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
