"The Russian film Mishen (Target) by Alexander Zeldovich is a real science fiction movie set in the year 2020. In the future Russia as a nation has become something far more positive than what we would fear from our perspective today. Mishen is the story of a young elite that only has one problem: things have been too good for them for too long and deep boredom sets in. So the characters decide to fly to the desert in their private jet. There they find a paranormal, alien circle sunk into the ground that looks like a flat parabola antenna. Energy is concentrated there and if one stands in the middle, the aging process stops, one’s senses and abilities are sharpened. The film is really very beautiful, you have to let yourself go with the tempo – then one finds a remarkable, descriptive allegory for Russia." The Panorama section head Wieland Speck.
