A classic of Russian documentary film he also stamps his typical hallmark on his latest film. Long shots fragmented with fade-outs, a sophisticated composition and the effective use of 35 mm black-and-white film. Loznitsa is able to raise seeming banality to the status of an artistic testimony indirectly reminiscent of the classics of Russian cinematography. On this occasion, he takes his camera along to record an attempt to catch fish in a frozen lake in the middle of the snowy Russian plains. In this harsh natural environment, four young men try to rip from the frozen depths of nature something which will provide them with a livelihood. (Karlovy Vary International Film Festival)

Sergej Loznica relies on the power of images to convey life and work in extreme conditions of the Far North. Unfortunately, in the vast inflation of various types of documentaries and scripted material flooding the media, his statement is too static and flat without spoken commentary. Overall impression: 35%.
