The Student

Russia 2016 | 118 minutes | Russian | Hebrew subtitles

When a student in a Russian high school discovers the Holy Scriptures, the whole school and his family are deeply rattled. The Student is a brilliant allegory about Russia today, freedom and tolerance, and the power struggles between victim and aggressor. But mostly The Student is a tour-de-force of filmmaking.
