We are shown a comedy of everyday life on a outpost deep in hostile land which is, except for the prologue, in line with the three aristotelian unities. Except for conflict within the outpost has contacts with a mute prostitute, her sister-pimp, an investigation committee, the general, the locals (which, unlike the real-life chechens do not seem to speak Russian too well) and enemies of high rank they meet for negotioations (at vodka). This movie can serve as an inspiration for mods for a game like fallout, it can be regarded as a parable and it can be watched without translation (though some of the humor is gonna be lost). All in all it is a decent movie. It even has some romance in it, and a kawaii little animal.
