DVD with subtitles
Editor : Borealia Films. 2016. Titre : Criminel (La Trouvaille).
Ce film est adapté d’une nouvelle de l’écrivain classique russe Vladimir Tendriakov, Nakhodka – « La Trouvaille », écrite en 1960. Mais l’oeuvre cinématographique dépasse le cadre du livre pour raconter une histoire plus universaliste et moderne. Le livret est consacré à cette adaptation, avec les interviews du producteur, du réalisateur et d’Alexei Guskov.

Plot synopsis
Trofim Rusanov, a senior inspector of the Fishing Control, considers himself to embody the Law and people around him to be “swines and thieves”; through the will of circumstance he finds himself in the taiga, alone with nature, tens of kilometres away from human habitation. What happens to him in the snow-covered taiga radically changes his view on life.
