	FIPRESCI - Festival Reports - Moscow 2003
		This year, the Moscow International Film Festival found itself halfway up the ladder between a local showcase meant to bring a taste of international fare to Moscow audiences and a must-stop station on the international festival circuit for anyone interested in Russian filmmaking.
		The festival’s intention seems to be to fulfill both functions, a difficult feat which met with mixed success thanks to practical impediments.
		In many ways, this is not a “good” film; it is too full of starry-eyed close-ups and, to Western ears, sentimental disquisitions on what a love-sick woman seeks in a man. But aside from real virtues (including an abashed engagement with its heroine’s emotional life), the movie connected almost electrically with Russian audiences, especially women.
