IMDB


My Joy the debut feature by Ukranian director Sergei Loznitsa, was first screened in competition at the 2010 Cannes Film Festival.  It is a dark and disturbing tale that shows a bleak and unforgiving glimpse of contemporary rural Russia.  Acclaimed Romanian cinematographer Oleg Mutu (The Death of Mr. Lazarescu), deftly captures the landscape with both a beautiful and ominous feel.
