Johnny's Gone (2011)
Johnny's Gone
Giorgio Serafini's work is always at a high level. This film is a very personal story, but told with beauty and enough mystery to keep your attention as the journey goes on and story unfolds with its quiet rhythm.
LaDon Drummond is lovely, and keeps an understated tension active throughout the film.
Little Johnny steals scenes and your heart.
Compliments for making such a lovely film on a limited budget that never betrays but satisfies.
Can't say too much more, don't wanna spoil it.

charming and meaningful comedy
I saw this film and became a fan of the filmmaker astrakhan. A real and poignant comedy.
Shot in St. Petersberg at a time of change and uncertainty, the optimism of "Everything will be OK" and the romantic but real feeling of the film are uplifting.
