Meditative, thoughtful love story told against the silently cruel arctic landscape. Almost wordless intercourse between Russian refugee soldier, presumably diamond or gold digger, and two female natives, mature and young one. And, as usual, love, jealousy and revenge go hand in hand.
Great cinematographic and actors' performance will be appreciated by the cinephiles with some refined taste, but the end of the story was a kind of disappointment for me. Yes, it's obviously foreseeable end, but it was impossible for me to predict the way that revenge can come. Figuratively speaking, exaggerated evil envy served by the director as the grateful disciple's acknowledge of Kim Ki-Duk's poetic violence mastership.
