A spectacular portrait of Russia, who looks at fascination and horror
"Mild", shown at the 2017 Main Competition in Cannes, is the third feature film by Sergei Loznitsa ("My Happiness" and "In the Fog"). Inspired by the novel of Dostoyevsky, the story leads us into a crime-free world. In the province of modern Russia, a woman with a catchy face (Wasilina Makowceva) receives a parcel return she sent to her husband in prison, without explanation. She decides to go to her beloved. She goes to the Kafka prison town. Officials refuse to provide information. He constantly hears "state secret".
Her path leads through successive circles of hell corrupted at all levels of institutional and moral Russia - is there still someone she can trust?
