Trevor, it LOOKS like Tarkovsky! If you didn't know better, you might think is was Tarkovsky.

Also, there are layers of interpretation one might find - religious, political,etc. as one can find in Tarkovsky.

I am not a reviewer, Trevor. I wish I were. I would love to be able to write about this film, but I am sure there are those out there who will see The Return and give us a good review.

Thanks for telling me about Koktebel. According to IMDB there are no VHS or DVD releases.
