In a Yakut village, one opposite the other, two single-parent families live, without mothers. The timid and unrequited Ivan is constantly humiliated by his neighbor, the impudent and self-confident Tikhon. After Tikhon beats Ivan in front of his son, the teenager becomes disillusioned with his father and begins to spend more and more time with his offender.
Reviews
a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
