Elena

Elena (Nadenzhda Markina) is a former nurse now in an unequal marriage to a rich and successful elder man. Both have children from previous marriages.

"A sharp, bitterly comic story of crystalline clarity about the moral and spiritual corruption of modern day Russia...it's a gripping and resonant tale. Philip French, The Observer.

"The subtlety and stealth of the movie is a marvel and so is the complex and enigmatic performance of Markina. Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian

"Sensational...has the taut structure of a Dostoevsky parable." Tim Robey, The Daily Telegraph
