Not only Mubblek

Today, January 20, the 2morrow film festival begins in the Moscow Museum. The five-day program of the festival is very dense and diverse, even the films of the second echelon here are required to view (2morrow always very representatively gives a cut of today's art-Mayans, almost not reaching the Russian rental). Without sharing the enthusiasm of the selectors to the fullest of such, certainly popular authors in narrow circles, like Alex Ross Perry (his new film “Listen, Philip” - already with professional actors, including Jason Schwartzman and Elizabeth Moss, in the current 2MorrOW program), or the directors of the “Yakut wave”, we made extremely subjective and there No less deprived of tendencies - the choice of the best films of one of the best Russian film festivals.

The second phenomenon of the Italian director Rorvacher, who has a special interest in the stories of girlish growing up. Last time, the difficult age was burdened with the severity of Catholicism, now-no less severity of eco-anarchism. The girl Jelsomin lives with her sister in a strange, open family consisting of a dull, exhausted man and two aging women. All of them are foreigners who escaped from civilization to the Tuscan wilderness and earn (very little) for a life by an apiary. Civilization, however, is also reached out, and in its very hellish manifestations: Italo-POP on the radio, moronic provincial contests of local products and Monica Bellucci in a synthetic costume of an Etruscan woman. A documentary description of the hard labor of eccentric parents and rebellious children at some point unexpectedly and smoothly goes into a magical, surreal dimension, in which the old house, bees and ridiculous camel, bought by children instead of a kitten, become echoes of fabulous, tragically unfulfilled utopia. Grand Prix of the Cannes Festival.
