VIFF 2012 review: Twilight Portrait

(Russia)

    1 of 1 2 of 1

      Russian movies rarely create many tourists, but this one seems fated to create even fewer than usual. A drama pivoting on rape, police corruption, domestic abuse of all kinds, alcoholism, and bizarre psychological reactions to intolerable situations, Angelina Nikonova’s dystopic portrait dares to deal with the one thing worse than evil: indifference to evil.

      Granville, September 28 (1:30 p.m.), October 4 (9:30 p.m.) and 5 (10:30 a.m.)
