The Last Term

Information about the film

Genres: Documentary, Short-length

Director: Vladimir Eisner

Year: 2002

Country: Russia

Duration: 28 min.

Description

To be thrown into the world, to pass through an enfilade of social roles, and to vanish. Is that the human lot? And how far is it fixed by milieu and era? “The Last Term” offers no answers, but poses these questions with a bluntness that spares neither the viewer nor the hero: Boris Efimovich Egorov, a veteran of the Great Patriotic War who became a professional thief, served time in prison, and is now living out his days in a retirement home, surrounded by other former criminals.
