The Green Elephant is minimalist in terms of plot, but makes up for it in the strength of its performances. The whole film is an intimate snap shot into the depravity experienced by the main characters, and serves as a small scale character study. The lack of structure, although frustrating from a narrative stand point, serves to add to the nightmarish quality of the film. At times it feels like a found footage film, due to the rough, hand held camera work which gives the film a feeling of realism. Over all this film is worth a watch to anyone who is a fan of independent film.

A hearth-warming story about friendship and the hardships of making new friends in unfriendly places. An improvised and minimalistic narrative and scenario will tell us about stuff such as hard work, regrets, life experiences, different points of view, duty, honor and consequences of your actions.

The great finale only is worth your time to watch this modern masterpiece, made for you by a savant prodigy of cinematographic arts, Svetlana Baskova. This movie is more than just a motion picture on your screen...

Green Elephant is love. Green Elephant is life.

I believe judging this movie without knowing the whole Russian history since 1917 would be very hard. Obviously people of soviet union have suffered alot through communism and 2 world wars. I have spent 14 years living in one of the Provence and still don't get the message, However this brutal culture is very familiar to me. Over there Life is not a celebration at all.

Best drama for family viewing, which will make everyone cry.

I strongly advise you to watch this excellent piece of real cinema art!

I don't know what to think of this film. It was so filthy, pointless, cheaply done, and boring. Yet the acting was powerful and it still hit me hard at some scenes. It's a weird one for sure.
