It's a beautiful depiction of Russia in the early 00s. It's funny and stupid at times, and the main character is an a-hole, but you end up sympathizing with him, because most of us were a lot like him in our formative years- he reminds me on Shinji Ikari with that. It makes you think, makes you care about the background characters, it works off the ever living conflict of fathers and sons that's so prevalent in Russian art. The scenes are interesting, captivating even for a viewer with a short attention span. Unlike any other work of Serebrennikov- this is probably him at his most genuine and raw.
