Leviathan
Aroview: A bleak but compelling allegory of modern Russia is lensed through a fisherman’s struggle against bureaucracy, corruption and demons of his own as he attempts to defend his rural family estate from state possession. The murky, vodka-soaked human dramas are effectively juxtaposed against imposing images of the remote, majestic landscape.
“If there was ever any doubt as to Zvyagintsev’s position as one of world cinema’s foremost auteurs, it’s put to rest here.” ~OLIVER LYTTELTON, THE PLAYLIST
