Based on the traditional fairytale of the Golden Fish, VODKA takes an uproarious trip headfirst into the spirit of Russia.

THE INDEPENDENT: "A range of tone and feeling - elated, mournful, sarcastic, horror-struck - far beyond the reach of most filmmakers. Intoxicatingly inventive and sympathetic, and with no morning after."

THE FINANCIAL TIMES: GULAG and VODKA give us a more vivid insight into the culture and character of the Russian people than anything we have seen on the British people in the past ten years."
