Film is based on a story by Leonid Andreyev "Life Basil Thebes", the fate of the village priest Basil, who passed through a great many troubles, renounces God, to a still greater grief regain faith - true.

Review

"Purification" - a mystical drama about the fate of the priest, his crazy wife, drunkards, their daughters, mocks his parents and sick son, imagining her mother's dreams.

The film was shot on one of the taboo in the Soviet Union, so it shows the spiritual elevation of the main character, speaking of the existence of God, as immutable dogma. However, the main character, the priest loses faith in God.

Acting in a film on top. Each of the actors plays so that it seems as if his character - the main. The game also Balueva beyond all praise.

The film is striking in its directness, sincerity, and mysticism. He was removed to the public, but, first of all, for people who believe.
