About

Letter Never Sent will screen from an imported 35mm print.

Featuring some of the most spectacular cinematography in all of Soviet cinema, Mikhail Kalotozov's Letter Never Sent is the rugged and sensational journey of four geologists who become stranded in the Siberian wilderness. As they fight for survival, they must adapt to the elements and escape the lethal forest fire keeping them from the vital supplies in their canoe. An utterly gripping tale of the extremes of nature.
