Movie Info

In Cold War Moscow, a female spy steals secrets from an idealistic politician - and falls in love with him. Moscow, 1959: Katya is young, beautiful - and a spy for the Americans. When she begins spying on Alexander, an idealistic Communist politician, the last thing she expects is to fall in love with him. Her choice between love and duty leads to a nail-biting conclusion that Alexander can only unravel decades later in 1990s New York. His journey back to the snowbound streets of Moscow uncovers a love triangle and betrayals from those he trusted most. Based on Shamim Sarif's highly acclaimed novel by the same name.

Respectably put together but inert ...

It's the kind of dud in which the bad decisions pile up as you watch.

Top Critic

So tasteful it's torturous, Despite the Falling Snow is a Cold War espionage thriller for those who like their period-piece action airless and derivative.

Village Voice
Top Critic

Unfortunately, the strong cinematography from David Johnson and costume design by Momirka Bailovic can't overcome a lifeless, poorly structured script from Sarif, based on her own well received novel.

There's not enough time to become the poignant love story it wants to be.

Time Out
Top Critic

With the action jumping backwards and forwards in time, the plot is not always easy to follow, and a gratuitous lesbian romance does little to disguise the fact that the underlying story has run badly out of steam long before the end.
