Watch “Cargo 200” (a Soviet Air Force codename for a dead soldier transported from a warzone) feature movie if you want a realistic portrayal of life under decomposing socialist society. It might have a weird plot but the scenery is extremely brilliant in recreating a dilapidated town in ‘84 Soviet Union down to a small detail.

Director and producer claimed their mission was to adress growing nostalgy for Soviet Union in modern Russia. People has to remember how ugly it really was.

That is a review on IMBD from Romanian user:

>>>>>>10 February 2009 | by OhneDich (Romania) – See all my reviews

It is a film about the death of totalitarianism in separately taken country. Year 1984, the life gloom of the Soviet power was condensed to the limit... Those who lived in USSR may cry when watching it. It is so cruel and at the same time so true. Every single part of you will tremble in the watching process. It is inspired from real facts, won’t let anybody indifferent, I mean for those who knows at least something about the cinematography... Roles are played perfectly, just how it was meant to be played. People with weak heart and people that loves American Pie series, skip it, you won’t like it anyway. For the rest, what can I say, you HAVE to see this movie. 9 out of 10<<<<
