Having a memory is the tragedy of life. Amazing, subtle, funny, sad drama. What beautiful epithets do not choose to convey the whole range of feelings after watching this film, they will not be enough. Art cannot come to an end as long as such films exist. This is a story about manipulators who are not ready to retire to second roles and will go to various tricks to get cigarettes, wine, the main role on the stage and even make a sacrifice in the name of false love. Remembering affairs, youth and love tragedies, they only sing beautifully about love and look for their attentive listener. Poor loneliness in old age. Old people who have not strengthened their relationship with a legal marriage go under the altar in old age to console themselves with the illusion that they are not alone. After all, even having such a large family, people live on their own, in their own nightmares. The same thing awaits a young couple who so eagerly want to get engaged. But they will do the same if they can maintain their union into old age. Everyone will have regrets. Try, try to run away from me, says the old woman with a scythe. - Hide behind the masks, keep playing. Even at a meal, tease each other, but still come into my arms.
In a private boarding house gathered such different people, who, however, do not stop playing, coming off the stage. A nudist who dreams of a leading role, gamblers, old people, robbers, a manipulator who dreams of prolonging his youth at the expense of a radiant and trusting girl. They all share old age. The old age that laughs at them. The applause is long gone. But youth extends a helping hand for a moment and allows them to organize a small rebellion. But he also stumbles upon the realities of life. The church is theater, the family is theater, youth is theater, and even funerals are theater. This drama should have ended in tragedies.
But the schedule of actions is thought out,
And the end of the road is inevitable.
I am alone, all drowning in the Pharisees.
To live is not to cross the field.
