Morfiy

To many it would be a film about morphine drug addiction of a doctor and his nurse. The film is based on the writings of the controversial Russian writer Mikhail Bulgakov and you realize it is a veiled criticism of the Leninist revolution. It is dark with persecution of Jews and landowners highlighted. The suicide in a cinema hall is possibly a Balabanov stamp; I can't be sure as I have not read Bulgakov. The film's co-scriptwriter Sergey Bodrov Jr. Came into limelight as the actor in Balabanov's Brat 1 and Brat 2 and made a single film as a director called "Sisters," which won awards at many film festivals. He is supposed to have died with his film crew in an accident while shooting his second film titled "Messenger." Thus, a fascinating trio was responsible for the film "Morphine."
