Bleak Cinema Presents Hard To Be A God

A group of scientists begin a field study in Arkanar, a planet exactly like Earth during the Middle Ages. Posing as a demigod, one scientist becomes witness to and participant in cyclical savagery.
Hard to Be a God is an uncompromised vision; It balances fetid nighmarishness with striking vividness, creating a singular tapestry stained with mud, sweat, and viscera. Russian master Alexei German’s final film is an epic of resigned despair. Abandon all hope—descend into the latest chapter of Bleak Cinema.
