A dystopian expedition into the unconscious.

WISH MACHINE tells a sealed off anomalous territory, the Zone. A writer and a scientist confide in the local stalker, a border crosser who leads them into the forbidden zone. There, it is said, wishes come true. The expedition becomes an immersive journey into the inner world of the protagonists.

Director Maksim Didenko, together with acting students from HfS Ernst Busch, is developing his own vision of the classic material of Russian science fiction literature.
