Celebration (2019)
Blockade Leningrad, December 31. In the country house of the Resurrection, living "in a special situation," six people and a chicken gather, who no one can cook. Previously, the cook was engaged in this, but the Voskresenskys were taken away from her on the eve - hard times came on the outside, and the situation is also difficult inside: the youngest son brought a hungry girl, the eldest daughter of an unknown man for whom she is going to marry. Before the New Year there are few minutes left, and the number of problems grows snowball.

Excellent but underrated film
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
