　　雾雪笼罩的怪异河岸。四处散落着钢精和水泥。一栋废弃的摩天大楼。平坦处仍未完工的公路桥。一座宏大的金属制的马的雕像。还有一座列宁的雕塑，他的右手伸展着指向空旷处。这是一个冰冷、僵化的无人之境，衰落的往昔在这里与想象中的未来接壤。人们漫无目的地穿过这个不真实的世界。原先确定无疑的事情不再令人确信，亲戚朋友都消失了，理想已经随风而散。萨莎从国外返回家乡，她死去的父亲曾经是这片建筑工地的主人，现在她继承了这笔遗产：一位正在寻找工友的吉尔吉斯斯坦工人；一位前额有块反着光的红色皮肤的建筑师；一位曾在莫斯科路障旁与叶利钦比肩站立的导游。他们中的一些人会莫名其妙地流鼻血。一位年轻的学生问道，“我们是谁？我是谁？一切都混乱无章。”　　小阿列克谢•日耳曼用七个章节，将他祖国的精神面貌压缩成一部长叙述的象征性电影，一场流畅精心设计的人与摄影机之舞。

等待方舟

　　Set in an underground dungeon inhabited by bundled, ragged human beings, after the nuclear holocaust. The story follows the wanderings of a hero through the situations of survival. People wait for the Ark to arrive and rescue them while their habitat falls apart.　　Delving deep into the dusty and long abandonded vaults of b-cinema in search of lost gems always leaves me with a bittersweet taste. On one hand the discovery of unexpected gems where no one would think them possible is a rewarding experience. On the other hand though it makes one wonder how many of these remarkable low-budget oddities, personal love affairs of directors never quite famous and now all but forgotten, have almost forever slipped from memory?　　n any case what we have here is a little post-apocalyptic gem from Poland that is really better than it has any right to. The dystopian near future of O-BI, O-BA finds a group of survivors of the nuclear war that ravaged the Earth inhabiting an underworld concrete bunker and biding their time as they wait for the mysterious Ark, an air ship of some kind that will come and save them. The Ark proves to be an elaborate hoax, carefully designed to give hope to the malnourished and desperate denizens of the bunker, while in the meantime the dome that separates their miserable existence from the nuclear winter outside is slowly caving in.　　What first striked me about the movie is the design of the bunker and the depiction of the survivors. The survivors are gaunt, filthy and terrible-looking penitents, dressed in rags and aimlessly wandering the neon-lit halls of the bunker like automatons. The bunker is a rundown, seedy place, with bright neon lights peering from all sides like the eyes of malignant beasts.　　On one hand it is a slightly 80's depiction of the dystopian future but the movie never stoops down to MAD MAX cheese. Instead it combines biting political satire with the bleak outlook of a world with no future, black comedy with barbs on apathy, religion and power. The survivors, for example, are fed some kind of flour dropping from a tube that hovers in the air - later on we discover the food supervisor uses books and the Bible itself as filler for this meagre meal. There are many such short symbolic touches, perhaps not life-changing or faith-restoring, yet playful, clever and inspired.　　One thing is for sure; O-BI, O-BA is not your run-of-the-mill sci-fi schlock. It overcomes its modest budget with creativity and has genuine artistic aspirations both from a writing and directing perspective. My opinion is that it should have been filmed in black and white instead of colour though. The director uses atmospheric light and shadow to great effect and it would have registered even better in stark black and white. The blue-green neon on the other hand outstays its welcome after a while. Just a minor gripe in an otherwise solid b-movie with its heart set in all the right places.　　Imagine a less bleak THE ROAD (Cormac McCarthy) being injected with the satire and humour of DR.STRANGELOVE and you're getting there. See it if you can find it.
