Requires an effort to watch....but you will never regret it., 20 January 2006
10/10
Author: Catherine Bragina from Glasgow, Scotland

This is in fact quite an obscure picture, even by Russian standards... It is dark (literally), morbid, disturbing at times... It actually requires quite an effort to watch. But it is one of those (quite numerous)Russian films that leave a deepest impression on the viewer by making him THINK. It is one of those brilliant "what if.." ponderings, never really giving you a final answer, or even if suggesting anything, leaving it open for the viewer to make his own conclusions. Perfectly cast (faces DO match the setting!), perfectly performed, and even the "special effects" - something Russian film makers never have money or enthusiasm for - in fact look quite convincing for their time. It IS hard to watch, and one probably has to be in a certain mood to watch it (I'd recommend to watch it alone), but it is worthwhile experience and you will never regret it.
