His sons Andrey (Vladimir Garin) and Ivan (Ivan Dobronravov) are forced by their mother (Natalya Vdovina) to accompany their father on a fishing trip to the remote Russian countryside. The prospect excites the older and eager-to-please Andrey, happy that his father has returned, but Ivan, too young to remember this man, cannot forgive or respect someone who is essentially a stranger. They eventually arrive at a lakeside where their father takes them on a small boat to an island in the middle of the lake. Ivan becomes increasingly anxious in the presence of the intimidating patriarch, as he and his brother struggle with the unanswered questions of who their father really is, where he has been all these years and why he has brought them to this remote and uninhabited place… The rugged beauty of the northern lakes and forests adds an ominous dimension to the unfolding human drama. Finally violence and tragedy strike. An impressive and assured debut from first-time feature film director, Andrey Zvyagintsev, THE RETURN on DVD also includes a moving ‘making of’ featurette dedicated to the memory of Garin (the older son, Andrey) who died shortly after the completion of the film. DVD EXTRAS Aspect Ratio: 2.35:1 (Widescreen 16x9) Sound Quality: Stereo & 5.1 Dolby Subtitles: English for the hearing impaired Features: Making Of Featurette Photo Gallery Trailer |
