Stalin’s Bride (1991)
At a dusty crossroads in the Soviet Union villagers surrender their possessions – a horse, a samovar, a goat – to the state. The train which takes them away brings to the village a physically and mentally handicapped woman, barely able to speak. She makes herself bracelets of burrs and studies herself in a cracked and cloudy mirror. Befriended by very few, teased and tormented by many she seeks protection at a huge portrait of Stalin. “by: rosej-1”
