Where to watch Absent (2015) in the UK

Absent (2015) is not currently on UK subscription streaming. It can also be rented from Amazon Video or bought from Amazon Video. Last verified on 6 May 2026 by ScreenSearch.

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.
