ALEXANDRA Sokurov is a master filmmaker of strikingly beautiful and poetic works. His latest — ALEXANDRA — is no exception. Set in desolate, sun-scorched Chechnya, an elderly woman has come to see her beloved grandson, a young Russian officer. Featuring a mesmerizing performance from Russian opera legend Galina Vishnevskaya, ALEXANDRA is a powerful statement on the crushing and brutal nature of war. |
