    Quite something!!! This Arthouse film is questioning people social behavior ( in this case russian, but could be perfectly any), its capability of individuality, its capability of community, placing the human being soul at the centre of identity quest. It is painful.
    Among other qualities, the strongest point is an amazing script, written by Yuri Arabov (Sokurov's scriptwriter) Cinematography, acting and sound are additional delights to perception (at least mine)
