Why is it all-egon? Why did he take her cubs? Why was he chained? Why did you forget about the dog so quickly? What is the reason for the “senseless” slaughter of sheep? There are too many questions left after watching. In my opinion, this is an unacceptable luxury for a parable film.
Although the movie is very well made. As they say, if wolves, then wolves, and if a bear, then also the real. No computer nonsense, no green screens or body sensors. "Old way!"
People again. Ours, Russians. Simplified, of course, everything is more than, but still close and clear. Tellingly, without mat practically. And nothing, you know, looks like it. I believe it. Is that okay? If you want to. As they say, who doubts.
