Customer Reviews of Ashik Kerib
Film as Poetry Visually, this is the most stunning film I have seen. It conflates the art of narrative and the art of the tableau--like the friezes Keats describes in "Ode on a Grecian Urn." Of course, the figures move--the subject is a romance, a quest. But the plot seems less important than the lyricism--a lyricism which includes, and yet extends beyond the visual. One feels the heartbreaking love of the director for a world half imagined, half real. The real basis of the world portrayed was largely destroyed by the Soviet Regime (and the general march of modernity). This too is present--a portion of the mysterious emotional impact. "Ashik Kerib" is an Oriental fairy tale, an esoteric protest, a song, a poem--an unforgettable work of art.
