Council of Winds

Incoming Editorial·Reviewed April 23, 2026

Invited and uninvited guests come to the Barguzins' house for a housewarming party. The languid evening is suddenly interrupted by events that are inexplicable from the point of view of common sense, creating an atmosphere of tension and drama. At the same time, Shai, a friend of Yust Barguzin, who supposedly witnessed the council of the winds during his travels, is painfully worried about the rising storm, which, according to him, is supposed to take him away. What is happening on the screen draws the viewer into a frightening phantasmagoria. Changes in mood, sudden turns, the appearance of unexpected characters create the illusion of the intersection of different worlds and an atmosphere of mystery. An unexpected ending clarifies the situation, but leaves the viewer with even more questions.
