Lilya (Marina Zubanova) is an approaching-middle-age singleton who lives with and cares for her grandfather and works at a chicken factory. She is determined to get married soon, but hasn’t quite found the man for the job. Most of the story revolves around various failed dates, her conversations with coworkers and family members, and her innocent stalking of a talented local pianist.

Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

In the past it was through the ageless writings of famous Russian writers like Tolstoy,Gorky,Chekov,Pushkin,Dostoyevski etc that the entire world got an idea of what a Russian identity is and at the same time how difficult it is to understand the Russian identity.In the modern world,it is through feature films and documentaries that viewers are forming an idea of the same inscrutable Russian identity. This particular film "With love, Lily" is a brave cinematographic attempt by Larissa Sadilova at revealing some finer aspects of hard to decipher identity of a Russian soul.This film is unique for being one of those rare films which talk of a woman protagonist leading a difficult life in a provincial town.This setting has been useful in unraveling one of the most terrible enemies of human existence : loneliness.In this film there is emotional turmoil too as due to lack of choice there are hardly any suitable partners for women. Although the heroine would very much like to escape from the maze of hard life, owing to family obligations she cannot even contemplate a move in this regard."With love, Lily" is a sad film but it has its own share of light comical moments which help in sustaining viewers' interest. strongly recommended for: all those keen on watching quality films from Russia as well as interested in finding out hidden facets of a Russian person's identity.

relatively simple, but beautiful film about a middle aged, working russian woman trying to find love. not since soviet cinema has there been a decent romantic comedy (though tragically russian) to come out of the country. kama sutra scenes were impressive, especially if you've ever watched a former soviet babushka stare at a shelf full of porno trying to figure out why there is a line all the way around the corner.great picture of average russian life, wonderful chicken factory shots. enjoyed the 'holiday on demand' just to meet up with a new man.its a shame no one in russia has ever heard of it. (same goes for russian ark).
