BEANPOLE (2019) Movie Trailer: Anti-aircraft gunners Iya & Masha are Bonded by Wartime Experiences in post-WWII Leningrad

Beanpole Trailer

Kantemir Balagov‘s Beanpole / Dylda (2019) movie trailer has been released by Kino Lorber and stars Viktoria Miroshnichenko, Vasilisa Perelygina, Andrey Bykov, Igor Shirokov, and Olga Dragunova.

Plot Synopsis

Beanpole‘s plot synopsis: “In immediate post-WWII Leningrad, two women, Iya and Masha (astonishing newcomers Viktoria Miroshnichenko and Vasilisa Perelygina), intensely bonded after fighting side by side as anti-aircraft gunners, attempt to readjust to a haunted world. As the film begins, Iya, long and slender and towering over everyone — hence the film’s title — works as a nurse in a shell-shocked hospital, presiding over traumatized soldiers. A shocking accident brings them closer and also seals their fates.

The 27-year-old Russian director Kantemir Balagov — whose debut feature Closeness caused a stir at Cannes and the New Directors/New Films festival just last year — won Un Certain Regard’s Best Director prize at this year’s Cannes Film Festival for this richly burnished, occasionally harrowing rendering of the persistent scars of war.”

Cast

Beanpole also stars Konstantin Balakirev, Ksenia Kutepova, Alyona Kuchkova, and Timofey Glazkov.
