It’s great when filmmakers feel like they can make an intimate drama and thanks to good dialogues they actually manage to pull it off. In this case, all they needed were two completely different characters and proper Russian Siberian taiga. The relationship of the two guys isn’t really special in any way, but the movie is shot so well that the final scene must knock out even the toughest viewer on the face of the earth. I say it is a good movie to watch once; I enjoyed it.
