Good movie made by joint work of the Russians and Italians

Great movie describing how love and affairs worked in the separate world of the late Saoviet politburo members. And how people were persecuted if they stood in their way. Recommended for historians and researchers of the Soviet and post-Soviet history.

Professionally speaking, some parts of the movie are made without good decorations of the Soviets and therefore for those who have seen those days, certain scenes look too Italian rather than the Soviet. The director has done his best may be to portray what a lavish live the politburo members were having then. However, the theme does not deviate from the realities. In one word, very recommended.

The actress in the leading role looks more Italian, rather than Russian/Soviet. I think a Russian actress could better fit into this movie.
