Filmed entirely in sepia tone and set in turn of the century Russia, the story is centered on two families and their decline at the hands of one man, Johann, and his pornographic endeavours. Hailed by some as a masterpiece, the movie comments on the decline of Russian society as a result of the rise of capitalism. (Moscow International Film Festival)
