Loveless
Andrei Zvyagintsev / RU, FR, 2017 / 127 min.
When the son of Boris and Zhenya, a couple on the brink of separation, disappears without a trace, nobody really seems to care what happened to the child. Zvyagintsev’s account of a spiritual catastrophe won the Jury Prize at Cannes.
In a nameless Moscow suburb a contemporary couple try to get their lives back on track while divorcing. Middle manager Boris has a new, younger girlfriend and hair salon owner Zhenja has her hopes staked on a rich, older man. Before their marriage is definitively dissolved the two antagonise each other during raging arguments in front of their child Aljosja until one day the 12-year-old boy disappears. Afterwards the parents continue to blame each other and are confronted by their own shortcomings.
