Summary |
An apocalyptic journey through the dark heart of the new Russia. Three strangers meet in a Moscow bar one late night and spin fantastic stories, all of them lies. They depart and journey their separate ways through a landscape filled with de ocaying meat, wild dogs, ravenous crones, cloned piglets, and modern industrial horrors. A completely unique and disturbing film, 4 was held up by Russian censors who wanted 40 minutes cut, but relented after the film won acclaim at film festivals around the world.. Official Selection: Venice Film Festival Rotterdam Film Festival (Winner: Best Film) Los Angeles Seattle (Winner: Best New Director) Tribeca. "The stark surreal images evoke a mixture of terror and absurdity that comes as close to the experience of an actual nightmare as anything Ive seen on the screen." -Stephen Holden, NEW YORK TIMES. "Ilya Khrzhanovskys nightmarish Russian tone poem stunned audiences at Januarys Rotterdam Film Festival. We can safely tell you to believe the hype. Strange and sick-making, 4 will haunt you for days." -TIME OUT NEW YORK. "This jaw-dropping whatsit is a grandiose study of barbarism and decay, a treatise on the way of all flesh." -Dennis Lim, VILLAGE VOICE. |
