With five stars, it is admirable to think that the director can complete such an ambitious film.
I was surprised at the fact that such a film attacking the corruption of the Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin government was produced with the support of the Russian Ministry of Culture.
Through the tragedy of the protagonist, the film ironically satirizes the post-Soviet Russia situation, discusses the country's dereliction of service to the people, the scale of exposure to the corruption of the Russian regime, and the pessimistic attitude towards the Russian political system is amazing. The music composed by Philip Golas in the film is exquisite and beautiful with Ceylon-style pictures, and the wonderful performances of the actors are impeccable. What is especially worth mentioning is the cold humor that the director cleverly incorporates in order to find a balance for the heavy theme. If the whole film is shocking, from the corruption of the government to the lack of justice to the tragedy of a love triangle, from the mysterious disappearance to the black detective who is convicted of murder, and then sublimation to the religious confession, the film is too ambitious and the drama of the plot transition is laid out in it. In addition to the information of the film, it also dispersed the power that could have been focused, which became the point of controversy in the film.
