Above the Lake

Above the Lake is a black-and-white 1995 independent film directed by Dmitrii Frolov. It is based on Alexander Blok novel Nad ozerom. The film is not an adaptation in the usual way: it is the reconstruction of the cinema of the beginning of the 20th century, performed by Frolov's contemporaries. Being a poetically philosophical reflection of the perception of Alexander Blok's poetry, the film at the same time reproduces the atmosphere of the legendary Silver Age.
