    Tulpan (2008)

    " A folk tale disguised as a documentary, Sergei Dvortsevoy's Tulpan appears something like actual reality, half-planned and half-found." — Slant Magazine

    Momma's Man (2008)

    " Momma's Man, completely unshakeable, is implicitly nostalgic, about a nostalgic man, but only because it has such an unsentimental commitment to the gap between past and present." — Slant Magazine

    Boarding Gate (2007)
