Synopsis
Tenderness (2020) is a Russian tragicomedy from director Anna Melikyan, available to watch online on iFILM. Elena, a sharp chief financial officer, has marched through life on numbers and deadlines with no room for romance — until a chance encounter in St. Petersburg knocks her sideways.
She finds the man of her dreams and loses him almost at once: no name, no number, just an obsession. So she throws everything at the search — logic, her friends, a rebound boyfriend, retreats, even fortune-tellers. The more ridiculous the methods get, the clearer it becomes that she's really hunting for herself. Viktoriya Isakova leads, with Konstantin Khabensky, Yevgeny Tsyganov and Svetlana Khodchenkova around her.
Melikyan builds a wistful comedy about a grown woman who finally lets herself feel something. Wry, delicate and refreshingly free of a sugary ending — made for anyone tired of glossy melodrama. Stream Tenderness (2020) online on iFILM.
