He Didn't Tie His Shoelaces

He Didn't Tie His Shoelaces (1997) is a bleak art-house drama you can watch online on iFILM. Stanislav dragged through a miserable marriage with Victoria until he finally killed her — and only once she comes back as a ghost does he grasp that he still loves her.

This is a small, eerie fantasy about affection that wakes up far too late. Sergei Makovetsky and Tatyana Yakovenko carry the two leads, with Aleksandr Chernykh directing the Russian-Polish co-production. Strange, slow and barely 74 minutes long — made for viewers who can stomach a love story with no comfort in it. Stream He Didn't Tie His Shoelaces (1997) online on iFILM.
