Silent Souls

Having set myself the goal of watching all the fairly good films released in Russia in 2011, I started with this movie.

The film turned out to be very languid, calm. Although the film is modern, and the plot takes place in our time, it is devoid of all the fuss, that overabundance of electronics that now reign in megacities. A provincial town, calm people, who never seemed to show bright emotions, who still retained some part of their culture ... This causes respect.

Some may feel that the scenes are drawn out. Yes, indeed, a change of plans takes a very long time. But it seemed to me a great merit of the film - so you could see every centimeter of the space being filmed. Immerse yourself completely in the plot of the film.

I immediately understood how the film would end, because the plot is quite simple and a little banal, they say, they are going to bury the godwit, which means they will bury it at the end of the film. But even after that, the interest of the film did not fade away. The film was watched in one breath, as if it lasted only a few minutes ..

Simple, unobtrusive, nothing special. Just a good movie.
