Two Russian films fighting for life in Germany


Russians have an eye for painting the bleak reality of life in art. It`s a rare case when two bold Russian dramas are in the running for the top honors at an international film festival in Germany.

One of them, called Living, is in fact a story about death. The other, called Bedouin, depicts a girl dying from leukemia. Both films are to be screened at the festival in Wiesbaden, running from April 18 to 24.

Bedouin - the story of a mother who goes to extremes to save her teenage daughter from leukemia - has recently won the hearts of the jury at a major international film festival in Serbia.

"The nature of the mother who saves her kid is the driving force of Life," the film`s director Igor Voloshin was quoted as saying.

Now Voloshin`s drama is up for the Golden Lily award in Germany. His only Russian competitor is Vasily Sigarev, the director of Living.

The Russian filmmaker made his name as the author of realistic plays written in the `new drama` tradition. In Living, Sigarev tackles an eternal question: Can our sorrows ever be healed?

Set in the middle of nowhere, in a wintry Russian province, the film revolves around several characters. A mother who wants to reunite with her twin daughters, a young newly-wed couple, and a boy looking to see his estranged father, despite his mother`s protests. Each of these characters experiences the death of loved ones and has to learn to live without them.

Last year a brutal Russian drama Kochegar (The Stoker) picked up the top award at the festival in Wiesbaden.
