Old age is just pigs. I believe it is God’s ignorance to allow us to live to old age. God, everybody's gone, and I'm still alive. Birman died, and I never expected her to. It is terrible when you are eighteen inside, when you admire beautiful music, poetry, painting, and you have to go, you have not had anything, but only begin to live!

It turns out that this film is uncompromising, but at the same time - delicate with its raised theme of old age and life in it. The screen is divided into two parts, as if the space of two old men, resembles the style of cartoons "Up", the same methodological canvas.
There is no visual sense - juiciness, color, relief, some certain color and picture, painting. Everything is sufficiently and deeply claustrophobic.
And most importantly, there is no condensed theme of infantility, which was not superficially decomposed into atoms in both Ecstasy and Love. There is also a difference in the semi-documentary manner of shooting.
There is no violence or sex, but there is a fear of such a life.
Very interesting film. 👏
