A fellow Mubi fan directed me to this Belarussian film, Come and See (1985), which offers a unique view on World War II and its aftermath. It was one of the most-watched Soviet movies of all time with many haunting images. It appears to be getting a second look, judging by this recent review by Roger Ebert Unfortunately, the full length version is no longer available on YouTube, but here is an extended trailer.
Once again, thanks for all the interest being shown in this blog. It keeps me going.
