Rússia

About This Movie

Rússia is more of a meditative exploration than a typical documentary. It captures the essence of Lluís Serrat Massanellas and his relationship with his father in a way that feels incredibly personal. The pacing can be slow, which some might find challenging, but it mirrors the quiet life they lead. Serra’s use of natural light creates a very raw atmosphere, almost like you’re intruding on their intimate moments. The performances are understated, adding to the film's authenticity. There's this lingering sense of nostalgia throughout, with themes of memory and familial bonds that resonate deeply. It's distinct in its portrayal of ordinary life, almost haunting in its simplicity. A unique piece in Serra's oeuvre, for sure.
