HOW VIKTOR 'THE GARLIC' TOOK ALEXEY 'THE STUD' TO THE NURSING HOME
Russia 2017 Dir Alexander Hant 90 min
'The Garlic', an angry young man, embarks on a journey of temporary reconciliation with his ex-convict father ‘The Stud’, in search for a nursing home.
This compelling award winning debut feature evokes the aesthetics of Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction and Danny Boyle’s Trainspotting, as it takes us on a satirical journey through dysfunctional parenthood.
Throbbing beats of Russian rap, vibrant colours and deadpan humour create an ironic commentary on contemporary Russia.
