About This Movie

Listen If It's Raining... is an intriguing blend of drama and history, crafted by Arkadi Kordon. The film meanders through a surreal tapestry, drawing on Kazakov's stories, which creates this enchanting atmosphere. You find yourself in these moments where the mundane and the historical collide—like the hero’s conversations with Stalin or sharing vodka with a down-and-out soul. The pacing feels almost dreamlike, allowing for reflection on the human condition amidst chaos. The practical effects lend a rawness to the scenes, making them feel lived-in and real. Performances are nuanced, capturing the weight of the characters’ experiences. It all feels like a haunting reflection on memory and identity, challenging yet oddly comforting.
