You Can't Think of It on Purpose

You Can't Think of It on Purpose (Narochno ne pridumayesh, 2013) is a Russian drama to watch online on iFILM about love arriving late and unannounced. Marina is past forty, sews at a tailoring atelier and raised her daughter Lera entirely on her own.

Somewhere along the way Marina quietly stopped expecting anything for herself, so she misses the obvious: one of her clients has fallen for her. He is Veligorov, a steady, well-off businessman who happens to be painfully shy. Two grown people, each carrying their own weight, feel their way toward something neither still counted on. Aleksandr Khvan directs, with Elena Drobysheva, Vladislav Vetrov and Igor Denisov in the leads.

A small, intimate drama for anyone who believes affection keeps no schedule and asks no age. Stream You Can't Think of It on Purpose (2013) online on iFILM.
