Featured review

for Russia fans

good cast. interesting story. slices of origins problem, shadow of past, Russian mafia in West Europe, manipulation, relativity of truth and crumbs of Moscow. not a great movie, but clever solutions for present existences as parts of different worlds. more than story of a young woman and image of Ivan as new Hannibal Lecter, it is a reflection of West in mirror of East. business , fear, people as insignificant pieces of a play, traitor, power of money, corruption as law and beauty as mask. a fairy tale in dark nuances. and unusual love declaration for Russia. because the language, the kind to see world, the escape solution, the obscure source of power, the circle of illusions are parts from an old science to strive the small things for be the winner behind any accident.
