This review I write long after I've seen the movie. He takes up the question of what and how 'liveable'. What price we demand from us by modernity? The price we have to pay in any case, whether we are actively engaged in the "progress" ADHD-like rise in sham activities, just run along, or even want to notice anything. The three monkeys or latter day expressed our apathetic sleeping society and our children's children definitely pay the price. Only that we einbrocken our children's children the soup that have to spoon it. ... If you have occasion to.
In passing the seer opens a deeper look into the Russian soul. This film is entirely in the tradition of the great Russian art. Each image scene is like a masterpiece of Russian painting, the dialogues as from works of Dostoevsky or Bulgakov, the Russian ballet choreography sophisticated as the music speaks most urgently. "Farewell Matyora" is intellectually through and through. As a work of art for themselves and gave people with an intense interior life my unconditional recommendation.
