I heard about the film only good reviews but hesitated to watch it mostly because of the strange and suspiciously simple title. Boy had I watched it earlier. Brilliant directing and acting, interesting plot, grim and depressing criminal environment leaves room for true bravery, bonding and in the end - hope.
Humour and crime are intertwined with beautiful views of classic Russian landscapes, good music underlines the gap between generations. In one episode a supporting actor made a great criminal that gave me shivers. Didn't expect that from a movie. Probably a bit of current knowledge of life in regional Russia would help to understand the plot.
Will definitely watch it again.
