The Road Movie by director Dmitrii Kalashnikov is an entertaining documentary that offers a fascinating insight into Russian life through the dashboard camera footage. Kalashnikov created the movie solely out of dashcam footage, which shows very weird stuff happens all the time and the extraordinary number of people who do unexplainable things when they don’t realize that they’re being recorded.
The epitome of a you-have- to-see- it-to- believe-it documentary, THE ROAD MOVIE captures a wide range of spectacles through the windshield—including a comet crashing down to Earth, an epic forest fire, and no shortage of angry motorists taking road rage to wholly new and unexpected levels—all accompanied by bemused commentary from unseen and often stoic drivers and passengers.
