UKRAINA! FILM FESTIVAL

БРАМА (THE GATEWAY)


Watchable. Grotesque comprehensible only to Ukrainians. While all the actors, especially Irma Vitovskaya as the granny, did their best, the script is so engrained in local history, I - an outsider recognised the terms of the great famine, Gorbatchev and successive occupations by foreign nations but had no emotions the Ukrainian nation certainly associates those events with.
