Luna Papa (Russian: Лунный папа) is a 1999 movie by Bakhtyar Khudojnazarov with collaboration from Russia, Tajikistan, Germany, Austria and France[1]
Plot summary
17-year-old Mamlakat lives with her father Safar, who raises rabbits, and mentally disabled brother Nasreddin in an unpaved lakeside village in Tajikistan. She works in a restaurant and dreams of becoming an actress. A travelling theatre company visits the nearby city but she misses the performance and wanders for a while. She chances upon an aircraft pilot, Yassir, who pretends to be an actor and a friend of a famous American actor. He promises to help her become an actress, but instead seduces her while she is in a dream-like fantasy, leaving the village immediately afterwards.
When she discovers that she is pregnant, she has no idea how this happened and who the father is. Determined to preserve her and their honour, her eccentric family sets out on a comic journey in order to find the unborn child's father and to force him to marry her. During this journey - in an old car loaded with rabbits - they travel through Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyzstan. The family meets various bandits and the charming impostor Alik, who poses as the seducer in the dark, and falls in love with Mamlakat.
