Captain Volkonogov Escaped, and so did this film.
Premiered at Venice film Festival, in Competition and was awared in many Internationla Film fests, including Socchi, but neve released in its own country, Russia.
see it and you'll get why !!!
The film is written and directed by Natalya Merkulova and Alexey Chupov.
Volkonovov is played brilliantly by Yura Bosrisov who you saw in Anora He is an NKVD captain in Stalin's USSR of 1938, when the Great Purge emerged. Timofey Tribuntsev is also great as his pursuer and former boss, major Golovnya.
The film has surreal qualities, non-linear narrative, great colors, widescreeeen cinematography (2.35.1), great production design, and black humor galore. It's a sort of thriller, dark comedy, historical drama, fable, and it shows a side of Russia's history at its most darkest (that is, until Today :( Ok, not only that but all Totalitarian Poli cde Ste.
The musical theme, recurrent and also sometimes ironical, is the legendary Soviet song Polyushko-pole (Song of the Pains), see the interpretation above.
4 out of 5 / 8 out of 10 !!! -a bit too long and confusing, or switches hard to follow...
