Kolya's comrade-in-arms Dmitry, who was a lawyer in Moscow, came to help him against the mayor's forced demolition of the house, but he and his friends found out that he had a relationship with his wife, Leah, because the mayor threatened him with his incriminating evidence. After beating him up and threatening him with his daughter, he had to go back to Moscow. Coria's son has never regarded Leah as his mother, and his mother died long ago. Leah committed suicide because she couldn't stand the pressure, but was used by the mayor to create the illusion of homicide. Coria was convicted of killing his wife and sentenced to the maximum sentence, but it was only 15 years, and the Russian sentence was quite light. His friend Pasha and his wife Angela took in Rome because they were classmates and friends since childhood. Corruption is terrible in Russia, even when Putin is in power. It's cold and desolate, the bad guys cover the sky, it's really dark, religion just numbs the people

It was so noisy that I almost couldn't help leaving the field three or four times in the middle. I don’t understand why the score is so high. All kinds of irony are a bit too deliberate and I don’t like it very much.

Partly due to the subject matter, it is highly likely to win the 2015 Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. It tells the story of Nail Household, who fought against the city government that covered the sky, and finally ended up in prison. The atmosphere of the whole film is gloomy and gloomy. Although there are satires on religious beliefs and puppet legal institutions, it still cannot hide the shortcomings of the tedious narrative and the flat characters lacking true feelings. (7.0/10)
