Sinekatalog’s take

A German logistics man is sent to Siberia to teach efficiency and ends up being changed by the place. The comedy leans on culture clash and the slow thawing of a rigid character. A mellow, good-natured choice for fans of fish-out-of-water stories.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
