Gruz 200

Cargo 200

(Russia, 2007, 86 minutes)

In 1984 Soviet Union, a young couple out on a joyride fall prey to a corrupt police captain who runs a moonshine on the sly. Absurdist, dark satire with horror elements that stops at nothing to point out the underlying horror of Soviet times and mores; hard to stomach and occasionally in poor taste, but undeniably powerful.
