User Reviews

I loved this film

As I was looking for films for our opening show of the Eastern-European Nights Out series, when I watched this film I was very touched. And I felt very blessed too.

To meet an artist like Yan Krupnik and to watch a film that is so sensitive, so insightful and yet a comedy that is so entertaining, it is a real event.

The members of the Eastern-European Independent Filmmakers' Alliance appreciated this film for the immense soul that is revealed and the subject matter that so many of us can relate to.

Congrats and good luck! This team deserves it fully.
