The acting is great and the story is believable. Like so many Russian films true to life. You should watch it if you like to see truism.

It is really difficult to create/discern an interesting microcosmos, nuanced, touching and realistic characters and an intensive story. But this movie does all this.

I was planning to watch this movie, but thanks to EnoVarma's review, I won't have to. He reveals the ending in his last sentence. Do yourself a favor and don't read his review.

Although I am British I have lived and worked in Russia many years and truly appreciate how accurate this film is, and unlike many rather soulful depressing movies that Russia often produces this is a warm, touching drama with wonderful nuanced performances by fine actors.

The two stars, Irina Gorbachova (absolutely radiant) and Aleksandr Yatsenko (such a superb actor) are perfect as are the rest of the cast (I loved Nikolay Shrayber as a slightly resigned but cheerful companion).

It also gives an insight into the life of an Ambulance Doctor... itself very interesting.

Recommended!
