No37
Silence can be more violent than truth.
In 2025 No37 became a feature film, directed by Zhandos Aibassov with the original stage cast. Fifteen years after a metro bombing that claimed their son, the family lives in mourning; on the anniversary Rasul appears at the door, alive and silent about where he has been.
A full metro station was rebuilt in retro style for the shoot, and the crowd scenes were filmed without CGI. After its release in Kazakhstan the film was presented at the Marché du Film in Cannes in 2026 and signed for worldwide distribution with TVCO.
