Got my recommandation.....The film is set in a small village in western Russia. It is a story about two days from the life of an ordinary family: a father, a mother and their five-year-old daughter. That’s what Garik Sukachyov says about his film: "On June 22, 1941, a family is celebrating the daughter’s birthday. It is a beautiful sunny day, full of joy and merriment. For the girl, it is filled with important events and adventure – her birthday is celebrated by the whole village, not just by her family. And no one yet knows that tomorrow her father will leave for his work in a district center and come back a few hours later in a home guard uniform only to say goodbye to his family. And that at the moment of their leave-taking the Germans already will be entering the village. And that they will be shot by the river, on the same bank where only yesterday the carefree, happy family was sunbathing and having fun..." - ruscico.com

What a heartbreakingly BEAUTIFUL movie!!!
Similar in sorts to 'Burnt By the Sun', but featuring some wonderful vignettes of the girl out playing with her friend [the tree-swing scene stands out!]. There's even some nudity thrown in, but the main draw to me were the scenes of the little girl just out being a 'little girl'; experiencing the joy of childhood!! She was absolutely captivating!

Filmed entirely in sepia tone [sort of like Lars Von Trier's 'Element of Crime' but brighter] the movie is filled with lush, at times surrealistic scenery!
I'm going to buy the DVD, for this one! ( http://www.petershop.com/en/catalogue/v ... zdnik.html )
This beautiful gem is WELL worth the download, if not the purchase of an original DVD! ULTRA KUDOS to the original poster!!!
kev!
