Peculiarities of the National Hunt / Особенности национальной охоты
- Comedy
A Finn preparing a work on the Russian hunting traditions and customs, comes to Russia to collect materials and is invited to take part in a hunting party. His flamboyant companions include an Army general, with more than a passing resemblance to Aleksander Lebed, a police detective, local forest ranger (a devotee of Zen Buddhism) and some big-city types from St. Petersburg. Inevitably, their good intentions soon give way to endless drinking, visits to local farm girls and much else besides.
Peculiarities of the National Hunt is a 1995 Russian comedy film following a Finnish researcher who joins a chaotic hunting expedition in Russia. Surrounded by eccentric characters including an Army general, a detective, and a Zen-practicing forest ranger, the trip spirals into vodka-fueled misadventures and unexpected encounters.
