The Wedding (2000)

Drama/comedy. Despite the title, not a love-story. Moral conflicts and daily survival of ordinary people.

In the times of disintegrated values, the theme of brotherhood and coming together (younger and older generations; Christians, non-believers and Muslims; working people and oligarchs; police and petty criminals).

Ironic vs serious: inversion of values of Socialist Realism; non-didactic, non-judgmental.Uncensored: sex and alcohol as subversive elements.

Reality vs “realism”: “unfiltered" take on reality, swearing (rus.

мат

), hardship, chaos. Hand-held camera: the viewers become “a part” of the crowd.Slide5

The Wedding (2000)

The

events take

place in a small town of coal-minersCentral characters:Tania, the bride: a top-model coming back to her native town to escape her oligarch lover and to marry her childhood suitor.

Misha

, the groom: a young miner, in love with Tania since school. Gives all his money to parents, can’t even buy a wedding present for Tania.

Garkusha, Misha’s never-sober old buddy, brings picaresque elements to the film (picaresque - “satiric prose fiction … depicting in realistic, often humorous detail the adventures of a roguish hero of low social degree living by his or her wits in a corrupt society.”)Slide7
