Your Brother Cain

Directed by Irina Vasilyeva

Possibly the strangest prison movie ever. It's not about the Gulag, it's not about human rights, it's not even about crime. It’s more than that. This is a philosophical film about the mystery of a man. About the inseparable connection between the sinners and the righteous: the murderer, the former prosecutor Vyacheslav Sharaevsky, and his intercessor, the rector of the church of Cosmas and Damian in Moscow, father Alexandr Borisov.
