Elegy of a Voyage
2001 · 47 MIN · IMDB 7.6 · 465 VOTES · DIR. Aleksandr Sokurov
Overview
This intimately narrated journey from Russia to Rotterdam, via rail, road and Finnish ferry, is a melancholy meditation on divinity, time and place in art, purpose (or its lack) and the loneliness of the soul. Passing through misty snowscapes, half-glimpsed cities and the icy night sea-swell.
