An oblique shot of a dream of alienation and fear

Under the dim sky, dark water. In the distance, flashbangs illuminate briefly.

Ivan: Trembling lips, big round eyes, rain-soaked eyelashes and dark circles call out weakly in the light. The hot water slowly moistens and runs over the protruding ribs. The more familiar you are, the more ruthless the cold current flows in the depths of the picture.

Water dripping.

Matthew's death.

Medium shot of three people. Beautiful.

So I understood that he wanted to sacrifice.

Opening and closing doors view closed and open only the stove and chimney will never burn.

The stars hidden in the water, the fingers touch the mirror in the well.

Steadicam. Sorrow Vertigo - Love Vortex.

"welcome"

Montage of tormented, engulfed cries of death camps.

So the sun shines through the cross. But can never let the cuckoo's voice resound through the sad woods again.

Flashback - wet rain, stitched sister's face.

Ivan's Childhood quotes

  • Ivan's Mother: If a well is really deep, you can see a star down there even in the middle of a sunny day.

  • Ivan: Is he a Fritz too?

    Galtsev: He's either a German doctor or writer.

    Ivan: They have no writers. I saw them burning books in a square. They poured gasoline on them and set them on fire. There was soot in the air for a week.

    Galtsev: That writer lived 400 years ago.

    Ivan: Well, then maybe.
