Moldova, the early 1990s. Dima, a tractor driver, wants to enlist in the army to make a better life for himself. Vasea, an Afghanistan war veteran, joins him. While on their way, they find a carbonized body and decide to give to a proper burial. What ensures is an absurd journey involving armed forces, local politicians, mobsters, and villagers. Carbon is a dark comedy that explores how a society quickly loses its goodwill in the face of public and political changes.
