Description
A Muslim boy painfully struggles toward manhood in brutal medieval Uzbekistan. Director Ali Khamraev balances the harshness of life with moments of quiet tenderness. His pageant of deliriously beautiful images helps make this one of film history’s most memorable coming-of-age stories. (35mm, 87 min., Russian with subtitles. With Dzhanik Fayziev and Dilorom Kambarova)
