Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
Tchaikovsky's Wife (Russian: Жена Чайковского, romanized: Zhena Chaikovskogo) is a 2022 biographical drama film written and directed by Kirill Serebrennikov, who had been criticised as a dissident in Russia. Starring Alyona Mikhaylova and Odin Biron, it follows the marriage of convenience of young, naive Antonina Miliukova to noted composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. The film had its world premiere at the main competition of the 2022 Cannes Film Festival on 18 May, where it competed for the Palme d'Or. It received mixed reviews, but critics praised Mikhaylova's performance. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
