In the box “Cold Front” Roman Volobueva – BBC

Ilya (Alexander Molochnikov) and Sasha (Daria Nayshuller) live in the house of friends somewhere in the wilds of Norman. Cloudy, approaching the New Year. Sasha leaves for on shore throws woolly miracle Yudo – whether a sheep, or a dinosaur. Ilya realized that create the appearance of mental work longer before anyone is chosen to the city, where he meets a drunk Masha (Svetlana Ustinova), which suddenly turns old friend Sasha and now are not going to leave. It is clear that to celebrate New Year, so we would like to spend it, will not succeed.

Several years ago, a top critic of the magazine “Billboard” Roman Volobuev with fanfare left journalistic career and said he was going to finally realize the long-held dream – to become a film director.

On this occasion, he gave a number of interviews, admitting that the artistic career dreamed of for a long time and is regarded as a long-running critical intermediate step before the full life in art. Not finding the money initially no one conceived of the author’s projects, pilot series debuted Volobuev “Tomorrow”, which has not increased in the first art project of TV channel “Rain”. The story of how the Russian opposition unexpectedly came to power, was conceived as a dashing anecdote, but the implementation is pumped, natolknuv on the banal idea that the example of the former critics of Jean-Luc Godard and Francois Truffaut already broke life is not one novice director . However, the serial pilot genre of technical, rather the application for producers and investors than the full work, and

«Cold front ‘in this context was to become a true debut, which colleague and readers of the author waited for a breakthrough or failure.

Neither one nor the other picture in the end did not. Once referred to the author’s attempt to remove the film Volobuev took the script, invented by Daria Nayshuller (Charusha) and Svetlana Ustinova, and he acted as editor and director (in the credits and it is written – “staging”). “Cold Front” – a muddy the rhythm romance for three, stretched for a half hour, “the scene of intimate life,” in which dimming instead of sex scenes, and misty landscapes occupy almost more important place than the movement of the characters in the space.

The plot is limited complication and development replace the phrase hang in the air and vague interpretation of the planned dotted love triangle: uninvited guest occasionally behaves like a psychopath is, if not as a possessed woman. However, none of these lines is not brought to an end, if the cold English Channel does not allow an alarming situation to reach this boiling point.

In this case, to say that watching the scene on screen or even painful as a particularly boring, you can not.

The table of contents is an obvious problem, but they compensate for stylistic unity, which has withstood the entire hour and a half distance. Those who have an idea of ​​the style of writing volobuevskom will probably obvious inscribed in script characteristic acuity, but even they do not interfere too much and quite fit into the aesthetics of Central European talkative film about relationships. In addition, this is a very significant film, the director, seems to remove that knows well – the characters do not really spelled out, but recognizable and therefore look alive.

Every resident of the capital anyway faced in his life with a beautiful young people, trying to fill the emptiness and lack of principles and a few allusions sluggish seizure activity – from morning to evening run awkward adultery. In other words, the “cold front” is quite artistically and accurately reflects some if not particularly pleasant or entertaining side of Russian reality – for the national cinema is kind of like a lot already.
