MOVIE: Nevestka (Daughter in Law) (Turkmenfilm, 1972)
Shakespearean tragedy on the steppe…
“There are films that can be viewed as the visiting card of the nation. The film of Khodzhakuli Narliev “Daughter in Law” is such an encyclopedia of life of Turkmen people. The film shows an ordinary life of herders – an old man and daughter in law, living in the desert, but their way of life in a traditional environment is conveyed with such a depth and emotion, in such a charming rthythm, which makes it impossible to turn away from the screen” (Gulnara Abikeeeva, Central Asian cinema critic)
