wast expanse of Russian land; how Russian people love to live life which is mostly solitary and with limited resources .How the doctor a young man utilizes everything and anything which is at his disposal.looks a little far-fetched but it reminds me of my father who is a vet.how he used to work a couple of decades ago. liked every character.Good acting without any pretensions. especially the doctor and the police man. a true taste of grass root Russian life.the last tragicomic scene,the superintendent cracking his own windshield,the young girl flirting with doctor.And the boy who killed the armed intruder teasing the police man and many more which cling to you after the movie.and above all the vastness of the steppe.

A doctor in the middle of barely anywhere is made to treat several strange ailments with barely any medicine.

Wild Field is so different to Hollywood films. Though really its not, it's just the bare bones of one. It's been starved of drama and clichés, there's no super-happy ending and an interesting lack of strong plotting. Films like this is going to take some getting used for me, but I am open to them.

It is watered down Hollywood, but Hollywood has been coming across too strong anyway. I really liked the humour that resulted, its was natural, and light. It didn't have me in stitches, but what's wrong with pleasant chuckles?

The film deals with so many key aspects of human nature, ethics, isolation, loneliness, faith, and dependency, is really human. It doesn't feel contrived like a blockbuster, or boring like a documentary, its not dramatic like a drama or as slow as some indie. It finds itself a nice middleground between them all.

Wild Field lacks a wow factor, it instead was soft and pleasant and I enjoyed it.
