Why watch this film?
The story around the opera is just a pretext for the audiovisual exhibition of 'Dama de Espadas', a Russian story that originated the play of the same name, which in turn is the basis of this film. An exciting thriller with very plastic scenes, which has received great recognition in its country of origin, including nominations in the categories of Best Actor and Best Actress at the Golden Eagle Awards.

Leaving Afghanistan
Film based on facts, 'Bratstvo' tells a story rarely explored in movies: the war between Afghanistan and the Soviet Union, focusing on the end of the conflict when the Soviet troops leave the Middle Eastern country. However, as with any armed conflict and invasion, nothing is peaceful - and 'Bratstvo' focuses precisely on the story of a soldier who is left behind. Although it falls into some genre mannerisms, the feature film succeeds in bringing a large production about war to a little-known setting for the audience, expanding horizons.
Thriller
Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2
Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 is the unlikely sequel to the feature film that placed the characters of this playful and childlike universe into a world of violence and horror. However, don't expect a production as weak as the previous film: with the success of the first installment at the box office, the production had more money to invest, and thus Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 manages to be more realistic, violent, and impressive compared to the first film. The characters' masks are much scarier, and it ceases to be a complete joke. It's still difficult to take the film entirely seriously, especially with this bizarre premise of Pooh and his friends seeking bloody revenge, but you can already feel more fear and, above all, immerse yourself in the wave of violence that the film promotes. To have fun with friends.
