So, 'Ivan Savelyevich Loses His Job' is this quirky little comedy from 2023 that really embodies the spirit of youthful creativity. It’s not every day you see a narrative where a doctor ends up on another planet because of a date with a patient. The pacing is all over the place, but in a way that feels refreshingly chaotic, which matches the absurdist vibe perfectly. The performances by the eleventh-graders from Tomsk are endearing, you can tell they’re just having fun with it. The practical effects are charmingly low-budget, adding to that distinctively DIY feel. It’s a celebration of imagination, really, and you can't help but appreciate how they push the boundaries of the mundane into something zany and unexpected.
