In English with Russian subtitles. A film adaptation of Donna Tartt’s bestselling novel, which received the Pulitzer Prize in 2014.

This tragedy changed his entire life and began a long, troublesome path full of sorrow, guilt, crime and redemption, loneliness, loss — and, in spite of it all, love. This is a path to making peace with life and with himself, above all else. Only one thing is certain to accompany Theo on his journey: a small and deceptively simple painting, full of deeper meaning, by 17th-century artist Carel Fabritius: “The Goldfinch.”
