'Men' Disappoints with a Flat Examination of Misogyny
Despite its simple premise, “imagine being a woman,” the horror behind "Men" feels fueled by a hollow understanding of the insidiousness of misogyny.
Agape (1996)
"Agape", translated from ancient Greek, means sacrificial, disinterested love, the desire to give everything, without demanding anything in return - Former accordionist of the Mosobl Concert Savely Berkutov is interrupted by odd jobs, playing in an underground passage. Like in a fairy tale, he inherits a villa on the exotic coast of Australia. It would seem that the life of Savely has abruptly changed for the better - But the criminal authority of Vadim Krokin, who has his own plans for real estate on the fifth continent, does not think so.

It’s not a film worthy of rewatch, but it may still resonate somewhat with those who need a story like this. It is a genuine, if flimsy attempt at a coming-of-age tale.
