Don't listen to the negative reviews

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Impressively performed by a four person cast and filmed in a single decor, this is a theater derived account of the three middle aged men Yuriy (Gosha) Kutsenko, Dmitriy Maryanov and Konstantin Yushkevich, friends since their college days, gathered for a vodka fueled diner and unexpectedly confronted by the girl they all desired when they studied together.Though (the spoiler) reduced to a wheel chair, TV actress Apeksimova, who was in the Val Kilmer THE SAINT, makes the character impressively desirable. As in the Dassin LA LEGGE and the Celantano ER PIU, they play the Truth Game with disturbing results.Pity they come up with such a conventional ending after all the revealing character material.Effective,mobile colour and scope filming.
