What time - such "Summer residents". Results of the Omsk festival "Movement"

OMSK. The debut festival "Movement" gave preference to the thriller "Summer Residents".

Season IV has once again confirmed the shortage of quality feature films. The Grandchildren who received the Grand Prix had practically no alternative. Everything came together: a strong script, merciless to the audience’s nerves, and convincing acting, and the award-winning operator’s work. The low-budget ethnic horror "Ferrum" Prokopiy Burtsev, interesting and innovative for the Yakut cinema, against the background of a bloody story from Alexander Vartanov seemed a report from a children’s matinee. "Summer residents". The story of a couple in love, removing anyone who wants or is hypothetically capable of harming her from the road, involuntarily refers to Oliver Stone’s Natural Born Killers. The trigger of both stories is a short-sighted attempt to encroach on the heroine’s personal space, leading to bloody showdowns inconceivable in cruelty. The word “Shock” rustled in the crowd of Omsk movie fans and the epithet “reckless” from the jury leader Valery Todorovsky can be considered the main compliments to the triumphant picture.

A story about girlfriends in search of love and adventure “City birds brought the title of best director, an award for the best actress who went to the female trio, and an audience award for Yulia Belaya, who learned the secrets of film production in Russia and France. Some critics considered these results a big advance for a picture sponsored by the Ministry of Culture. The painting “Summer of Frozen Fountains” by Vano Burduli with nostalgic views of beautiful Tbilisi and a mosaic of sad love stories was awarded the prize for the best script. The beautiful, but emotionally detached “Sea Grass Gatherers” by Maria Murashova was recognized as the best documentary, moving aside the tapes “One such” and “This is my dad” clinging to my soul. A very strong short film “About Football and About Angels” by Aksigny Gog was left without “gingerbreads”, preferring to her the cute but not outstanding “Firefly” by Natalia Nazarova.
