I watched it censored on YouTube. This film may not be for everyone, and it certainly doesn't aim for a faithful literary adaptation. However, Valeria Nemchenko's portrayal seems more aligned with Nabokov's original vision than either of the Hollywood versions. She captures the playful, seductive essence perfectly. With simple sets and a memorable outhouse scene, this low-budget, provocative reimagining delivers on its steamy promise. Plus, I must admit, I enjoyed the alternate "happier" ending. ===Note 1, the real name of actor is not Vladimir Sorokin, but Vladimir Sorokolita. Note 2. "Gennadi Petrovich" is nicknamed by Alisa as "the crocodile" which makes him being named after "Gena the crocodile" from the "Tcheburashka" books by Eduard Uspenskiy.
