Summary
Alexander Kott's wordless Soviet-era love-story, Test (Ispytanie) sets in an utterly remote corner of the USSR at the dawn of the H-bomb age. "A mischievous father and his gentle, beautiful daughter live a quiet life in a vast plain until two young men fall for the girl. The love triangle leads to a wholly unexpected turn of events in an astounding story that incorporates unimaginable beauty with a strong social message"--IMDb. "Unspecified in the movie itself, the geographical setting can be deduced as somewhere near Semey in modern-day Kazakhstan, then known as Semipalatinsk - notorious as the site of the USSR's first nuclear test, in August 1949"--http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/.
