A Gentle Creature

Sergei Loznitsa / FR, 2017 / 143 min.

Some five years ago documentary maker Sergei Loznitsa sparked excitement with his feature films In the Fog and My Joy, two pitch-black and absurdist portraits of a Russia in decline. With A Gentle Creature, loosely based on a story by Dostoyevsky, Loznitsa once more offers a tragic and sardonic take on the state of contemporary Russia, presided over by the ghosts of Gogol, Kafka and Dostoyevsky.
