Petrov's Flu
Петровы в гриппе
2021
Synopsis
With the city in the throes of a flu epidemic, the Petrov family struggles through yet another day in a country where the past is never past, the present is a booze-fueled, icy fever dream of violence and tenderness, and where – beneath layers of the ordinary – things turn out to be extraordinary.
Editorial
A labyrinthine fever dream of contemporary Russia, this maximalist epic from Kirill Serebrennikov is an exhilarating work of acrobatic formalism. Following a comic book artist suffering from a mysterious illness, Petrov’s Flu takes an anxious, timely plunge into the dark nights of the Russian soul.
