Russian Symphony
Russian Symphony is a 1994 Russian drama film directed by Konstantin Lopushansky and starring Viktor Mikhaylov. The narrative is set in a dark version of contemporary Russia where the world seems to be coming to an end through a flood. A man is desperate to do something good with his life before it ends, but is mostly met with suspicion.
The film ties in thematically with Lopushansky's other apocalyptic films, Dead Man's Letters, A Visitor to a Museum and The Ugly Swans, and is the most overtly religious of them.
It played in the Forum section of the 45th Berlin International Film Festival and received the Prize of the Ecumenical Jury.Cast
