Xavier Christiaens
Belgium
2006 / 0:52:00
This beautiful and mysterious film is by one of Belgium's most
talented and peculiar directors. It is a poetic journey into the
border areas of the disbanded Soviet Union where imperial power is
still intact, if only as an accompaniment to the dream-like soundtrack
that is a backdrop to the film's mix of fiction and strange,
documentational moments. Christiaens has described his film in terms
of Odysseus returning home after his exile and finding a completely
new world where nothing is as it was before he left. |
