elenaA gripping, modern twist on the classic noir thriller. Sixty-ish spouses Vladimir and Elena uneasily share his palatial Moscow apartment. He’s a still-virile, wealthy businessman, and she’s his dowdy former nurse who has clearly ‘married up.’ When a sudden illness and an unexpected reunion threaten the dutiful housewife’s potential inheritance, she must hatch a desperate plan. 1 hour, 49 minutes. Russian with English subtitles. Not Rated.
