Gleb K An interesting take on class issues in Russia. In this case, the film specifically deals with petty crime/neighborhood gangs, alcoholism, poverty and how that is all intertwined with family. I feel like the film is slightly overdue, as it would've felt somewhat more relevant ten years prior, but I guess the issues and the story at hand are more shocking because of just how much provincial Russia has stagnated since the 90s. Acting, cinematography, and the soundtrack are just absolutely spectacular. Although somewhat imperfect in its discourse and writing, it is a must-see. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/16/25 Full Review Ирина Р How Vityka Chesnok took Lyokha Shtyr to a nursing home is a beautiful story that tells of Russian life as it really is Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/18/24 Full Review Read all reviews
