Russian Meat

About This Movie

Russian Meat dives deep into the grimy underbelly of Zagreb, evoking a heavy, oppressive atmosphere that lingers long after the credits roll. The film’s pacing is deliberate; it allows you to marinate in Ida's desperation as she navigates this dark world. Nola’s direction really draws you into the brothel's chaos, where the line between survival and morality blurs. Performances, particularly from the lead, are raw and gritty, embodying a palpable sense of urgency. The practical effects accentuate the film’s visceral nature without overshadowing the stark emotional journey. It’s a tough watch, but that’s part of its distinct charm. This film is a gritty exploration of vengeance and survival, wrapped in a world where power is as fleeting as life itself.
