Aysylu

18-year-old Aisylu lives in a village with her mother. She suffered a severe spinal injury in an accident during early childhood; the lower part of her body is virtually paralyzed, and she gets around using forearm crutches. She loves to sing, and one day a famous Tatar producer arrives in the village—his father had once lived there, right next door to her home.

Three stories and language confrontation intertwine at the moment when the Moscow Tatar comes to Tatarstan to persuade an old-fashioned Kazan to sell a house in the center. He has everything for happiness: a miracle wife, an obstinate daughter, an actress sister, a pink goat and many problems. According to the capital’s development, a metro station should be built exactly on the site of the protagonist’s house. But it was not there. It is difficult to agree if you communicate in different languages. In the literal and figurative sense.
