So, 'Fulfillment of Desires'—it’s an intriguing piece, isn’t it? The atmosphere is thick with obsession and intellectual pursuit. We follow this young philologist who gets lost in the world of Pushkin, almost to a fault. The pacing can be a bit meandering at times, echoing the labyrinths of thought the protagonist navigates. There’s this palpable tension as the archive, a kind of treasure trove, vanishes, which adds a layer of mystery and urgency. The performances, though from lesser-known actors, have a raw sincerity that pulls you in, revealing the depths of human desire and the cost of ambition. You can really feel the weight of the past in each frame, making it distinct in its own right.
