A tragicomedy about an amateur theater in Volyn. Seeking to overcome his personal crisis, a renowned stage and screen actor Petro returns from the capital city to his native village to create a theatre with his fellow villagers, thus proving to himself what he is still capable of. After a decade of fame, a small troupe is tired. It is increasingly difficult for the director to find actors for new theatrical productions. The choice falls on Chekhov's vaudeville for three actors. On stage - the director, the director's wife and the director's childhood friend, the head of the club. Summer heat. Serenity. Six months before the war.
Reviews
I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
