Rusalka - Mermaid (Flyer) Rusalka - Mermaid (2008)

Once upon a time … is the best way to tell the incredible story of the
adventures of the ‘mermaid’ Alisa in the Russian capital Moscow. There was
a time when Alisa lived by the sea. Her life was nothing out of the ordinary.
She dreamed of one day dancing in a ballet; she sang in a children’s choir
and attended a special school, because, at the age of six, she suddenly
stopped speaking. None of which would be noteworthy, were it not for the
fact that Alisa possessed a remarkable gift: the ability to fulfil wishes.
At the age of 18 she leaves her coastal town for Moscow, where her destiny
soon takes hold and she meets him … a man whose desire to be saved and
protected is pretty much written all over him.
