🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film lives at the rhythm of everyday life — and that's its strength. No cinema about 'big events,' just about how people live, make mistakes, and understand themselves.

Worth watching for the performances and the sincerity. If you're waiting for events — there aren't many. If you're waiting for feeling — it's there.

For those looking for film about people, not events. If you need action — look elsewhere.

Director: Grigoriy Chukhray
