Russian movie Farewell (1983)


The general concept of Northfork (2003) is similar to the Russian-Soviet movie Farewell (1983), which is also a movie about people forced to live their village because of the area being flooded by the construction of a dam. I liked the Russian movie and hoped to see something similar in Northfork. Man, was I disappointed. The Russian movie is about actual people and the real tragedy of leaving your home and the land of your ancestors. Northfork, however, is some incomprehensible fable. What a waste of a promising idea.

Here is the imdb link of the Russian movie:
