A drama based on a memoir about growing up as a member of the Urka community in the small republic of Transnistria.
If the gratuitous violence, bestowing of treasured flick-knives (for use), elaborate but inexplicable tattooing, accompanied by barely intelligible dialogue (in Siberian English?) creates a film for you, good luck! in isolation, there are striking, almost self-indulgent, dramatically lit and contrasty shots. The Italian makers have deceived themselves if they thought they had made a film. It will make the viewer keep clear of Siberia, and value his own education, wherever else obtained. The disruption and lack of continuity incline the poor viewer to fast-forward in search of a coherent scene, or... the End.
Only the printed lines of a short Preface give any coherent account of the situation. Jump-cuts, wilful lack of continuity, and the odd extraneous clip (e.g. Fall of the Berlin Wall), added to the trivial dialogue, increase the incoherence.
