Review of Dear Comrades! (2020) by Bertobellamy — 10 Jul 2022
A woman's lament is also the nation's. 'Dear Comrades' starts as a political drama only to transform into a thriller about a mother desperately looking for her daughter. Andrei Konchalovsky conjures striking images and a nerve-racking story to make the world remember the Novocherkassk massacre, in which more than 20 unarmed civilians protesting for labor rights were gunned down by the Soviet army and the KGB.
This is a very sharp look into ideologies clashing within different generations, all part of a country that demands everything for them without giving anything in return.
