The father, who had been away for 12 years, came home and took his two grown sons out to complete the learning process of the experience.

The episodes used high-level diving and playing together to explain the characters of the two brothers. They lacked the personality that a boy should have such as courage and responsibility, and the father will be the mentor to complete this life growth.

Just like in real life, people are not perfect, and this father is not. He uses his own way to communicate with children, and the way of education seems blunt and powerful. Indeed, our sympathy will be transferred to children, although their stubbornness and lack of assertiveness It can be seen that this is malnutrition lacking the growth elements of the father of a male family member.

In a few episodes, it will be found that the father's love is also firm, showing the temperament of a man with unjust logic, drinking, violence, tame, corporal punishment and other extreme methods should be concentrated in a 12-year step-by-step tutorial arrangement, and gradually emotions will change. , Ivan smiled, Andre took on the responsibility of his brother, and his father became warm in his heart. This is the success of this film. It is not expressed deliberately, but it is an interpretation of the details of life.

The gloomy tone always heralds a bad ending, but I didn't expect it to be such a tragedy. If the final chase is not the father but Ivan, it will be the sin of everyone's life, and the film shocked the heart, the chase brings of fear.

In the end, we saw the growth of the two brothers, turned into men, saw the success of the father, and finally called this "Dad" and plunged into the universe they exploded.

The film has been nominated for the Golden Globe Foreign Language, Best Russian Film, Venice Golden Lion Award, etc. "return"
