Father and Son (2003)
Directed by Aleksandr Sokurov
In this dreamlike film, a nameless father and his son, Aleksei, live together in an apartment in St. Petersburg. Aleksei's mother has died and consequently the two have a very close relationship. When Aleksei acquires a girlfriend, she refuses to take a back seat to his bond with his dad, and breaks up with him. Aleksei is also experiencing nightmares, dreading separation from his father to be a part of the military as his father was.

What critics compared Father and Son to
Because Sokurov does almost everything in pairs or series (see: the Tetralogy Of Power, Mother And Son and Father And Son , his St. Petersburg Diary and Elegy documentaries, etc.), it was only a matter of time before he would make a companion piece of sorts to Russian Ark, set at another world-class museum.
