Plot
A couple going through a bitter divorce realise that their twelve-year-old son has vanished and join a volunteer search.
Sinekatalog’s take
Andrey Zvyagintsev's bleak drama of a divorcing couple whose son disappears is icy and devastating. Cold and precise, it is a damning portrait of emotional neglect and a society looking away.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
