Meshchaninova doesn't have much to say about the character apart from this; once she reveals his true nature, the film doesn't really have anywhere to go.

Superbly acted by a cast that also intrepidly deals at close quarters with some unpredictable animal life, Core of the World can be read as a parable about the fragility of human empathy under pressure.

There's a faction of filmmakers that strives to emanate real life in their art and end up putting the audience to sleep. Core of the World is like that. It's so true to life that it ends up a complete dud.

The film stays away from melodrama and keeps the acting down-to-earth and sympathetic.

Solid staging and performances in this Russian-Lithuanian production spares nothing in depicting life on a farm dedicated to the preparation of hunting dogs. [Full review in Spanish]
