Yuliya Snigir recommends what movies to watch in isolation
8) “the Beautiful era” (France, 2019). The most subtle and accurate picture about the fact that we should not give up even in the most dramatic moments of life. And that the past does not always pulls us down, memories of him can help today. The film is witty and touching. Starring Daniel Auteuil.

Such a piquant situation becomes in the end, the plot is a love story… romance Is in the highest sense of the word.

10) “Holy week” (PaulISA, 1995). A film by Andrzej Wajda takes us to Poland during the Nazi occupation. Venue – the Warsaw ghetto. This is a picture of how it manifested human characters, their best features and, alas, the worst. Someone helped Jews, and someone gave them. The film is honest and moving.
