Description by OLDIES.com:
After taking a wrong turn in their car, a young gay Russian couple witnesses what they believe is a vicious gay bashing; their quandary over what to do about it propels them into ever more dangerous territory. This slow-burning film is highly topical, given the intense worldwide outrage over Russias mistreatment of gays and the countrys 2013 federal law prohibiting homosexual propaganda. Anton and Vlad make a handsome pair, sharing a loving and natural chemistry in the comfortable privacy of their Moscow apartment. For Anton, the burden of what they may have witnessed outweighs Vlads fear of probing too deeply into the incident. Convinced of the polices indifference recent events make this a terrifyingly plausible scenario Anton talks his skeptical lover into launching their own amateur investigation into the hate crime. Their risky search for the truth has unexpected and grim consequences. In their first major film roles, the two Russian-born leads give convincing and nuanced performances. Renat Shuteev conveys steely reserve behind Antons haunted eyes. His character stubbornly forges ahead into tense situations even though he knows where they could lead. French-born director-producer-writer Jonathan Taieb, tackling very big ideas on a small budget, aims to convince us that we are ultimately defined more by our actions than by our ideas. Official Selection GAZE International LGBT Film Festival 2015. This Blu-ray features English subtitles for the deaf and hearing-impaired.
