starred in the film. A few independent critical reviews have given the
film generally positive reviews. Jennie Kermode, in her 3.5 star (out
of 5) review, writing for the website Eye for Film states "Stunningly
beautiful cinematography dominates a film in which the dialogue is
sparse...(Kopturevskiy's) style is observational, quiet, but the
emotion we see is raw". Roger Walker-Dack, writing for Queerguru.com
calls the film "an excellent, heart-wrenching drama". In the official
write-up for the film on NewFest's website, the film is described as
being an "auspicious debut drama...an elliptical and much-needed
examination of internalized homophobia, repression, and identity in a
remote Siberian town".
