Leviathan
Today I watched a movie titled Leviathan. It is finally are showing in our cinema theaters after almost 2 years ofafter finishing the production finished.
This is a the 4th film by Russian director Andrey Zvyagintsev, who is famous for his style of telling parables in his movies.
His first movie, "The Return" is about interactions between a father and his children.
The Ssecond, "The Banishment" is about love, specifically a woman's love to for a man and love to of god. The third, "Elena" is about a mother's love to for her child.
This one, Leviathan, shows the opposition between one little man and the state. The storyline was inspired by the story of Marvin Heemeyer, whose house was under dispute with the Government. If you don't know the end of Heemeyer's story - check out Wikipedia. Spoiler alert - Leviathan ends differently.
Leviathan shows a remote Russian remote province in it's all its poverty, desperation, and alcoholism. Many people blame criticize Zvyagintsev for showing life like this but in my opinion it's close to actual view on the reality of a Russian province. If you want to see how real Russians outside of Moscow and other big cities live - watch this film, it's outstanding.
Leviathan is nominated on for an Oscar award as best foreign picture. It's already won a Golden Globe award, a prize of at the Cannes festival, and number of other prizes.

Leviathan sounds interesting! Your writing was very easy to read and understand. Your mistakes were fairly minor, and normal for native Russians speakers, such as difficulties with the difference between definite and indefinite articles.
