Why watch this film?
Since the beginning of the 2010s, Russia has been experiencing a renaissance in its cinema. On one hand, there are provocative independent productions, such as 'Sem Amor' and 'Leviathan'. On the other, there are studio bets to make their own international blockbuster films, such as 'The Guardians' and 'The Mermaid'. The curious, strange, and fun 'Domovoy' fits somewhere in the latter category. After all, here we dive into a traditionally child-friendly story, typical of any Afternoon Session, about a domestic elf who causes all sorts of trouble with the new residents of the house where he resides. Despite the strangeness of the characters, it's possible to have fun - even if the little ones may not sympathize much with the character that gives the movie its title.
