This film beautifully tells the tale of an advertising copy writer as he rises up in the world of Russian Busness. This film is so well done that it borders on an "Art" film and the story is both intriguing and disturbing for the viewer because the mechanisms shown fully exist in the world we live in, and this is a "glimpse behind the curtain" of that dark and relatively unseen world. Filmed with High production values the film showcases that indeed Russians are not only capable of making great movies but, that they can be done in a way that is every bit as entertaining and sophisticated as Hollywood. A remarkably worthwhile watch even with the subtitles. The story will provoke thought long after the film has been watched. Highly recommend for folks that like intellectual storytelling!
