In this charmingly absurdist Cinderella riff from German writer-director Veit Helmer, Chichikova features alongside such international luminaries as Paz Vega, Denis Lavant, and "Underground" star Miki Manojlovic, the latter portraying an aging cargo train driver on a quest to find the owner of a talismanic brassiere he stumbles across during his route. Set against the picturesque locales of Azerbaijan’s capital Baku, this exuberant, Tati-esque fairytale brims with quirky allure and gentle eroticism, in no small part thanks to Chichikova’s captivating performance.
