From an interview with Galina Vishnevskaya
I couldn't turn down this role…
Sokurov simply said that it is very important now to make a film like this about Chechnya. Without any war in any shots, without bombing and shooting, in order to try and understand, to get to grips with ourselves. He also insisted that he saw his heroine's character specifically in me… There is nothing blatantly straightforward in this film, there is no moralizing. It is simply painted from reality, a picture copied from life—three days in Grozny, a grandmother visiting her grandson, a 27-year old captain who has been sent to Chechnya. Various situations, meetings, conversations. The dialogues are not long, there is virtually nothing that has been specially built, everything is in a real setting… There is even an episode where I climb up on an armored troop carrier. The heroes have no history in the film. It is implied that this elderly woman was maybe a teacher in the past, the wife of a soldier, and her grandson is also a soldier. She is just a Russian woman, and the whole situation is seen through her eyes. The hardest thing was to get off the tank. And I don't only mean literally. To get off the tank to a peaceful life — that is the hardest thing of all for everyone in Chechnya today.
Um filme descodificado nas expressões faciais dos personagens.
Sublime. 5/5.
