The end of the 1980s experienced drastic changes in Eastern Europe. The political and economic systems of various socialist countries in Eastern Europe have undergone fundamental changes, and the socialist system eventually evolved into a violent turbulence in the capitalist system. In such turbulent times, the attitude of the Czechs towards the Soviet Union was also on the opposite side, because the Soviet army liberated the Czech Republic at that time, but then they stayed there. Most Czechs hate the Soviets in their hearts. In the beginning, the "father and son" were incompatible, Korya didn't speak Czech at all, and Luka didn't speak Russian well. But later, the "father and son" were also getting along but slowly developed a dependence on each other... It
feels like this movie is a bit similar to "Central Station". It is a story of single men and women getting along with their children and having feelings, the same. Underdeveloped countries have the same tenderness. The warmth and the kindness of the little people, the turbulent history can not obliterate the simple things in human nature...
run for a livelihood, enjoy the joy as much as possible in ordinary life, I have seen a few Czech movies, and I feel that they have followed this route, the last time I watched a Czech movie It is "Prague Rhapsody", a surrealist film that also tells the lives of ordinary people. Through the stories of Luca and Korya, the political pressure and environmental dilemmas faced by the Czechs and Soviets of that era are presented. At the national level, this is an invasion and occupation, but at the personal level, it involves a group of people of good nature who have not lost their goodness due to political and national reasons.
Like a ray of sunlight shining into my heart. Luca also shines in the long-lost sunshine because of his relationship with Koria~ The little warmth under the background of the big era can move people the most. I like Czech movies very much, and I feel that there are so many weird things.
Finally, I want to say that this is a good movie that has been overlooked, and I recommend everyone to watch it.
