Kin-dza-dza! / Кин-дза-дза! (1986) Blu-Ray, 2 x DVD9 RUSCICO, 2 x DVD5
on January 13th, 2022 at 04:26Kin-dza-dza! is cult sci-fi of the highest calibre, a truly inspired work from Daneliya mocking not just Soviet but worldwide customs we take for granted.
Foreman "Uncle Vova" and Georgian student Gedevan accidentally found themselves on a strange desert planet, Plyuk, in the faraway galaxy "Kin-Dza-Dza". The planet’s inhabitants looked like humans and understood Russian, because they could read people’s minds, although their own language was pretty limited. Virtually everything, with a rare exception, was expressed by one word – "koo". The planet's entire population was divided into two castes: the superior one – "chatlians", and the lower one – "patsaks". Uncle Vova and Gedevan, who learned they were patsaks, had been trying throughout the film to get back to Earth, in which they finally succeeded, after many an adventure...
Kin-Dza-Dza is something like an "advanced cyberpunk film". It's a lot about people and social structures which on the planet of "Pluke" of course have many parallels to our society. It's a very funny movie, but it's also a melancholic movie with great philosophical sense.
