A
high energy examination of a man coping with relationships
and mortality; Snow White and Russian Red follows Yoddo
Wormski, a low level criminal who slides through Warsaw's
underbelly finding himself in various Kafkaesque situations.
Adapted from Dorota Maslowska's post-modern novel, the
film voices the problems and confusion of youth experienced
in an urban environment. As we follow Yoddo through
Dorota's in-film narration, director Xavery Zulawski
challenges narrative convention with highly stylized
visuals and special effects that maintain a level of
smart, sharp dialogue. Borys Szyc is enthralling as
the crass yet overly thoughtful and often comedic Yoddo,
moving aimlessly around Warsaw as he worries about his
recent break up with the beautiful Magda. The picture
has already polarized audiences, and whatever one's
verdict may be, this is undoubtedly a film with a clearly
articulated vision of the world.
