Siberia is art, in photography, in directing. People expect to watch a fiilm of good drama told by a mainstream artist. Those ones don't know Ferrara's universe. It's plenty poetry in it!
If you love Bela Tarr's movies or Tarkovskis, or LYNCH's you should watch that. Really powerful and intense poetic, don't try to find a plot, don't go and sit in front of it like you are watching a peaceful drama, because it is not. It is poetry, it has some stunning visuals, sound, OST, Willem Dafoe is allways a tremendous actor.
Run to watch it and you decide if you like it or not. But if you are finding a, plot and a "normal" Movie, avoid it.
Only for those ones who want to go more away than cinema can't (metafisic cinema). Really a cinematic experience, more in the way of MALICK. Really engagging to senses.
7 Stars out of 10.
