Burnt by the sun

So I found myself actually a little sad when Kotov, a communist, was taken away by Mitya, a KGB, member. It was weird how someone that we know by his title and his residence would not normally mix well with our beliefes. Yet he was shown as just a simple man who stood strong for his town and family. What's not to love about that.
What I would like to mention thought is the guy driving around looking for that one town that nobody has heard of. I think he is put in the movie to shoe hat in a contry that is though of as so structured and organized when it comes to an individual it is very obviuos that it is extremly easy to be lost and left behind. It is like he's the black sheep in society.
I do not think the russians wwould be prou when this movie was made that their country acted like this. I feel an international audience would find the movie much more entertaining. For so long there were so many secrets on what exactly went on inside the closed off country. Ans espescially at the end when it was revealed that this was based on a true story it really hit me hard at least that something like this could happen to someone who is jsut doing their job and then also take the family away as well too.
Also at the end when they say it was dedicated to all those who were burnt by the sun during the revolution. In the film I now realized that when the sun was around something bad was going to happen due to the communist government. It is also interesting that while at the beach or riverbank or whatever Kotov kind of forshadows that the military will be coming by when him and Nadya are on the boat when he tells Marusia to cathc some sun.
