The film’s unfamiliar backdrop is captured vividly and intimately.... --Wendy Ide, Screendaily\n\nThe film is a vivid rumination on the fuzzy border between fantasy and reality. --William Repass, Slant Magazine\n\nThe cast is terrific. But, the greatest asset to The Whaler Boy is the cinematography by Mikhail Khursevich and Yakov Mironichev. The film is a true work of art, as the visuals are grand and fuel the emotional core of the protagonist’s journey. Every frame is gorgeous, from the amazing at sea shots of whale hunting to the landscape swallowing Leshka as he treks toward his destiny. When coupled with Krzysztof A. Janczak’s stirring score, the film proves to be a true auditory and ocular sensation. --Bobby LePire, Film Threat\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B09RHHR9TL\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B09RHHR9TL.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Vladimir Onokhov|Kristina Asmus|Philipp Yuryev\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Dvd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
