Synopsis
Aurora (Avrora, 2022) is a Russian tragicomedy with a thriller underneath, and you can watch online on iFILM. At ten, Sasha Zorina was the face of a hit blockbuster called "Aurora." Fifteen years on she answers calls at a suicide prevention hotline, drinks past the limit, and keeps failing to revive her acting career.
The morning after a drawn-out 25th-birthday bender, Sasha realizes she remembers nothing of the past four weeks. A whole month, simply gone. The deeper she digs into those missing days, the clearer it gets that something far more dangerous than a blackout is buried in them. Elena Tronina plays the lead with zero self-pity — her Sasha is exhausting and magnetic at once. Director Roman Volobuev folds hangover comedy, a burnout drama, and a creeping mystery into one.
The tagline "she is her worst role" lands square on target. This 18+ series is for viewers who like bitter humor and heroines you wouldn't applaud yet can't stop watching. Stream Aurora (2022) online on iFILM.
