Shadows of Our Forgotten Ancestors (2 VideoCD).

Жаль что в фильме говорят на старом гуцульском языке,ничегог не понятно!!!Да и книга читаетс яочень тяжело!!!Я не довольна!!!

Фільм чудовий!Спочатку я прочитала книжку, а потім подивилася фільм.Супер.

This movie is one of the classic of the world culture. It has the same artistic feeling as films done by Felini and Bergman. Traditions of Hutzul’s and Carpathian mountains should be studied in art schools.
Very nice.

Фильм хороший. Дуаю все, учишиеся в средней школ, знакомы с содержанием. Хотела приобрест его а диске. И вот нашла на этом сайте :)

Very pleased with product. Good value for money. Fast shipment. Safely packaged.
No problems with playing it on my iMac and NAD562 dvd-player.
Rare find of early film by Paradzjanov. As a film not an exciting attention-grabber, but very true in its civilization-depiction and offering pure encounters with real people from another world.

I am satisfied with what I bought. The DVD would not run on my TV-DVD or my Compaq computer, but on my daughters Dell laptop from college it worked fine. Not knowing much Ukrainian was a hindrance, but the photography and visual techniques got the message across. My purpose was primarily historical research of my Rusyn ancestors' customs, and this was useful, as well as the trembita players. Thank you, Mikhailo S Bohom

Great movie. I've seen it a couple of times since I've got it. There is no need for subtitles.

I am glad to say that my discs arrived all the way from the Ukraine, and I am watching one even now. The image and sound quality are superb, better even than the worn and aged celluloid copy that must be the only one in the UK. As it only gets shown about once every ten years, having it on a video CD is certainly a quantum leap in my opportunity to enjoy watching one of Paradjanov's masterpieces - which it surely is. And even the lack of subtitles is an irrelevance, as the episodic nature of the narrative is easy to follow through the stages of the hero's life. I am going to try and buy some more of these period Russian and Ukrainian films, as they are just so life-affirming

"Shadows of Our Forgotten Ancestors" does not need any comments. It is delicious.
