To give you a better idea if this film is worth your time, here is a summary of audience reactions from various forums (Reddit, Letterboxd, and Ok.ru comment sections):

Positive Reviews:

"A slow-burn masterpiece. The final 20 minutes left me breathless. If you liked 'The Witch' or 'Hagazussa,' you'll love this." – Letterboxd user. "The cinematography alone is worth the search. Every frame looks like a Caravaggio painting in the snow." – Ok.ru commenter.

Critical Reviews:

"Too slow for mainstream tastes. My friend fell asleep twice. It's more art installation than thriller." "The allegory is heavy-handed. We get it – the salamander represents climate anxiety."

Technical Notes from Ok.ru Users:

"The English subtitles on the version uploaded on March 15 are off by 2 seconds. Use the Russian subtitles if you understand." "Audio is in French and German depending on the character. Make sure subtitles are on."
