For over a hundred years, Mărculești was a vibrant Jewish agricultural and mercantile community in Bessarabia (now present-day Moldova). In July 1941, the village was the site of an unimaginable atrocity. Seventy-three years later, few speak honestly or completely about what happened. ABSENT is a cinematic portrait of the ghost village of Mărculești, its current inhabitants, and their very complex relationship to their own history. Filmed entirely on location, the film documents one of Europe's poorest, most remote, and least-visited places.
Released in 2015, Absent is a documentary film from Willona Prod (Switzerland). It was directed by Matthew Mishory and written by Matthew Mishory. With a runtime of 1h 11m, the film averages 5.8/10 across 4 TMDB ratings.
