Description: A group of scientists are sent to the planet Arkanar to help the local civilization, which is in the Medieval phase of its own history, to find the right path to progress. Their task is a difficult one: they cannot interfere violently and in no case can they kill. The scientist Rumata tries to save the local intellectuals from their punishment and cannot avoid taking a position. As if the question were: what would you do in God's place? Director's statement Aleksei wanted to make this film his entire life. The road was a long one. This is not a film about cruelty, but about love. A love that was there, tangible, alive, and that ...

" With its hot mess in a mud, Aleksei German's (sadly) last film is an absolute masterpiece. There is a rather unfamiliar setting of a scifi film in Hard to Be a God but absolutely brilliant one. The exploration of human condition, in this case that's what's between culture and barbarism, is something that always speaks deeply to me in cinema. Therefore Hard to Be God is such an easy film to fall in love with."

"First of all: This is not for everyone, but it's a hell of a film. I couldn´t believe my eyes while I was watching this. The camera is like a fly, atracted by the dead bodies, the blood, the guts. Some of the characters seem to notice it. "
