Elena

Streaming video - 2011

A gripping, modern twist on the classic noir thriller. Sixty-ish spouses Vladimir and Elena uneasily share his palatial Moscow apartment—he’s a wealthy businessman; she’s his dowdy former nurse. Estranged from his own wild-child daughter, Vladimir openly despises his wife’s freeloading son and family. But when a sudden illness and an unexpected reunion threaten the dutiful housewife’s potential inheritance, she must hatch a desperate plan… Winner of the Special Jury Prize at the **Cannes Film Festival.** Official Selection at the **Sundance Film Festival**. *"Sturdy performances, fine photography...and a pleasingly terse script make for an incisive, gripping drama." - Geoff Andrew, **Time Out***
