Горько! – Gorko! – 2013
Zhora Kryzhovnikov’s first feature-length film became a huge success – Gorko! left nobody indifferent. He later went on to work on the wildly popular TV series The Kitchen. The term “gorko” litterally means “bitter” but is the term that has been associated with Russian weddings for so long that its origins are now debatable. In the movie Gorko!, Natasha (Yuliya Aleksandrova) and Roma’s (Igor Koreshkov) wedding turns out to be a metaphor of Russian life and one of the funniest comedies of the decade in which love to one’s family is praised with all of its downsides.
