    **"Big Brother is watching you"** A chilling (and sometimes hilarious) take on George Orwell's "1984". A mathematician starts to feel at odds with the Big Brother's dictatorship, and falls in love with a woman who is part of the secret uprising. Great musical score, wonderful actors.

    **How many fingers do you see?** Great movie, very much different from the Michael Radford version. The protagonist, a brilliant mathematician, lives under the constant tyranny of Big Brother. He meets a woman who convinces him to rebel. Colorful, vibrant and disturbing take on George Orwell. The actors deliver wonderful performances, with Obmanov and Ivaniy being the standouts. The film score is haunting and beautiful. Recommended.
