Plot

Another mesmerising film from the director of Russian Ark and Mother and Son with his now trade mark use of film and colour that provides a moving image more reminiscent of painting than celluloid. This gentle and intense film explores paternal love and the conflict involved when child becomes man. Beautiful, hypnotic and mystifying.
