Sexy andiinvolving." - The New Yorker Winner of the 1994 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film and the Cannes Grand Jury Prize, Burnt by the Sun is the unforgettable story of a Soviet hero whose happy family is suddenly targeted by Stalin's secret police. Nikita Mikhalkov directs and stars as Colonel Sergei Kotov, a hero of the Revolution who is spending the summer in the country with his young daughter (Mikhalkov's real-life daughter), his wife and her eccentric family. But when his wife's childhood love suddenly appears, the idyllic summer day takes a surprising turn. The lyrical film filled with beauty and warmth, Burnt by the Sun is also an indelible account of a man dedicated to family and the fatherland, cruelly destroyed by political paranoia. "Visually sumptuous, intellectually stimulating, extraordinarily acted, the movie will burn itself into your memory forever."
