Plot synopsis
A parable on the theme of the Last Judgement that is beginning in Russia in our days. One day, all of a sudden the Last Judgement begins — this is how the characters of the film interpret numerous catastrophic events. But it turned out to be not as simple as it seemed to. There was a certain ambiguity, a kind of a game behind the events. And there was a terrible suspicion that the things going on were some kind of a performance, a theatrical production
The film director Konstantin Lopushansky was awarded the Aecumenic Jury Prize of the 45th International Film Festival in Berlin (1994).
