An aside to the gorgeous colorful essays of the author, an Armenian with an attached Russian ending to his surname, is just one example of how far and effectively Russian vomit spread: the cast and crew is a medley of Russian, Georgian, and Armenian surnames. As you might guess, I’m no fan of Russians or those yielding to them.

One of my favorite films.

The whole thing is on Youtube, btw.

Also great by the same director: Ashik Karib, about a wandering minstrel. And how beautiful he was.
