Dibon

Bimmer (film)
''Bimmer'' ( ) is a 2003 Russian road movie directed by Peter Buslov who co-wrote it with Denis Rodimin. The plot revolves around four friends who get into trouble with the law and flee Moscow in a black BMW (the eponymous " bimmer"). As the gang drives across the Russian landscape, they encounter corruption, violence, poverty, and various situations characterizing the bleakness and challenges of small-town life in post-Soviet Russia. Considered to be not only a crime drama but also a critique of the policies of Boris Yeltsin, ''Bimmer'' depicts the economic crisis that followed Russia's sudden transition to a free market economy, and with it, a lost generation of men who grow up in a world ruled by criminal gangs and corrupt law enforcement. Despite a modest budget of only $700,000 and a limited cinematic release, ''Bimmer'' became a cult classic in Russia, Ukraine and other countries in Eastern Europe, praised both for its cinematic quality as well as its soundtrack. Both the f ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
