To start with, the opening credits scene is just ICONIC!! Literally. The music and the editing are just so good and well made. The story isn't new but it's unique because it's relatable. The script is good, dialogue is great, directing was awesome and for sure acting is magnificent. The mood is 100% lovely and you'll wish the movie never ends. Totally a rewatchable movie. I've watched it more than 10 times since 2017, when I first heard about it. I strongly recommend it. You'll fall in love with it. <3

This movie is very sweet, pure and nostalgic at times. It ended so quickly, I wanted more. Very realistic feel to this Russian coming-of-age film. Reminds me a lot of Boyhood. Things work out a little too well at each step here, but that's not to say it's without drama.

The soundtrack is a lot of fun-gives it a similarity to Brat (which the film directly references). Great job representing the generational gap between mother and son and the complexities of communication. Her birds and the bees talk while he's zoning out with music blaring on his earphones is very nicely done.

I watched this movie to create a moment of complicity with my 13 yo daughter (and to practice Russian). With different level of "reading" we were both amazed. The main actors have a mind-blowing talent. The subtility, fragility and intensity of the characters emotions is reflected by the esthetics of the movie taking place in this working class environment. So simple and so perfect at the same time, the layers of the mother's emotions are brought to us in a manner that is so simple and subtle at the same time. A real gem well hidden for us, non Russian cinema lovers. My daughter says she never saw teenagers emotions and "drama" so precisely depicted by "the world of adults" and with such kindness.

This movie is for those who fall in love or have crush on someone in their teenage. It will remind you of your teenage just watch it !! It will be the best movie you'll ever watch on tennager!

Accidentally found the movie on youtube and when I started watching it I couldn't stop. Non stop i sit chair all 2 hours non-stop. Film reminded me of my first love and teenage years I am thrilled with this movie.
