Shakespearean tragedy collides with fiIm noir in a remote Russian village in this dark fabIe from celebrated Polish filmmaker Andrzej Wajda
Siberian Lady Macbeth observes the cruel machinations of Katarina, a ruthless woman who wiIl Iet nothing threaten her affair with a mysterious drifter When her father-in-Iaw discovers her indiscretion, she dispatches him with a dose of rat poison. But soon others, including her husband, sister-in-law, and young nephew develop suspicions of their own… and test the limits to which Katarina's lethaI passion wiIl carry her.
The film's barbaric setting emphasizes the primordiaI desires that propeI its heroine toward destruction, while Wajda's carefuIly composed images endow the film with a visual impact and formaI grace that make Siberian Lady Macbeth an unsung cIassic of Eastern European Cinema. |
