About The Long Road to Self
The family idyll collapsed when the husband, who was far from art, got tired of his wife's creative self-denial. Not believing in her talent, he does not show her work to an art critic, but tells his wife that her work has not been accepted for the competition. This is followed by rehabilitation as a creative person, but it is no longer possible to establish family relations.…
Directed by Natalya Troshchenko, The Long Road to Self leans on a strong ensemble — Yevgeniya Simonova, Nikolai Karachentsov, Liliya Gritsenko — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1983.
