In contemporary context, obvious, a film who you must see. First, for discover Taras Shevchenko life and work. Yes, presented under the rules of Soviet Union perspective ( Stalin is alive ), but useful as start point for understand the importance of writer/ painter for Ukrainean civilisation.

A decent, to touching eulogy of a symbol of modern Ukraina , giving not more than sugestions but in fair - noble manner . Sure, in same measure, a sketch of manifesto, crafted in the spirit of period, about hard life of humble people, revolt, punishment, druzhba and return to loved home.

Second, for beautiful performance of Sergey Bondarchuk. Not the last, for nostalgic air, values reminded, for hommage of friendship and love for fatherland.

Shevchenko can be only the artist serving the people interests. It is obvious that, other perspective can not be possible in that time.

The life of poet is clay for propaganda about communion between Russians and Ukrainians. Not surprising in the light of present point of view of present leaders of Russia.

But the delicate poetry and few performances are a nice gift for not ignore this biographic film about intelectual condition under Imperial Russia regime.

So, for different reasons,many profound subjectives, a must seee.
