Excellent cinematography by Yury Rajski and Alexey Todorov captures the monumental landscapes and decaying interiors, while the score by Aidar Gainullin is perhaps too grandiose for the subject matter. Movie Drama directed in 2011 by Vyacheslav Ross, with Pyotr Zaychenko (Ivan), Mikhail Protsko (Lyoshka) and Lidiya Bairashevskay (Anna). Performances are strong across the board, and the young Protsko is particularly touching without ever seeming cute. But Ross often undercuts such moments with a dark (and very Russian) sense of humor, as well as a pointed naturalistic style that accompanies certain scenes, including a roadside picnic where two characters swap stories and indulge in a bottle of moonshine. wild dogs racing beneath a rusty Communist-era monument, a child’s drawing substituting as an Orthodox icon).
Initially developed under the Cannes Residence program, the screenplay’s different plots are sufficiently weaved together, even if they do suffer from a certain heavy-handedness and overt symbolism (e.g. Accompanied by a young private (Maxim Yemelyanov), the soldiers traverse the mud-filled country roads until they eventually snare a girl ( Lidiya Bairashevskay), and only then have a change of heart. After stopping by to offer assistance, Lyochka’s uncle ( Sergei Novikov) suffers a horrible fate, leaving his dad and nephew completely isolated as the winter sets in and the snow begins to tumble.Ī parallel, somewhat lighter storyline involves a mentally unstable army captain (the formidable Nikolai Kozak) who’s been sent on a mission to retrieve a prostitute for his cigar-chomping lieutenant (Sergei Puskepalis, How I Ended This Summer). If this film is any indication of the quality of the films being shown at this festival through November 5 th, and I suspect it is, New Yorkers are strongly urged to check out the schedule and make time for. The well-constructed narrative has several characters crossing paths at different points, centering on an orphaned 7-year-old boy, Lyochka ( Mikhail Protsko), and his god-fearing grandfather (vet Pyotr Zaichenko, Taxi Blues), who reside alone in a ramshackle log cabin. Last night I saw Siberia, Monamour that kicked off the Eleventh Annual Russian Film Week in New York at the Village East theater. Cut off from the outside world in conditions that appear unchanged since the reign of Nicolas II, the place is left open to attack by dogs and thieves scouring the land for food. Miles away from the absurdist theatrics of his debut feature, Fat Stupid Rabbit, Ross convincingly depicts various country folk fighting to survive both in and around the ironically named hamlet of Monamour, located in the heart of the Siberian taiga. Sometimes their relative uncle Yuri brings food to them. One of these dogs is Leshias best friend. A pack of feral dogs devours everything alive in the neighborhood.
Distributed in France by EuropaCorp, it should find international exposure in fest slots and bookings on the arthouse circuit. In taiga, in the deserted village there lives an old man Ivan & his seven-year-old grandson Leshia. PARIS - A solidly directed portrayal of backwater Russian life, Siberia, Monamour marks a promising sophomore effort from filmmaker Slava Ross.
