[hok007]

Released by CP Digital in November, 2009.

По мотивам одной из самых известных повестей Николая Гоголя "Тарас Бульба". События "Запорожской сечи" отсылают к тяжелому периоду в истории казачества, когда запорожцы поднялись на борьбу с Речью Посполитой.

В самом центре политических интриг оказалась семья уважаемого казака Тараса Бульбы, переживающего глубокую личную драму. Его сын Андрий полюбил польскую аристократку и хочет бежать из Сечи. Раздираемый чувством и долгом Тарас объявляет сыну последнюю родительскую волю…

128 min.

Тарас Бульба (Taras Bulba) is a historical drama, based on a novel of the same title by Nikolai Gogol (the 1842 ed.). The movie was filmed on location in Ukraine (Zaporizhia, Khotyn and Kamianets-Podilskyi) and Poland, and was released on April 2, 2009, to coincide with Gogol’s bicentennial. A great deal of controversy accompanied the film's theatrical release, particularly in the Ukraine, in part due to the financial backing of the Russian Ministry of Culture, and the view by many Ukrainians that it was intended to advance a political claim to Ukranian territory by Russia.

The BD's technical specifications are indicated as 1080p/AVC MPEG-4
2.35:1, Russian audio (DTS-HD 7.1), and Ukranian subtitles. Region ABC.

Astonishingly, it looks like the *only* subtitles included on the BD are Ukrainian. No Russian, no English, no French, no German....

Ukraine Forever

Ukraine is a great country, yes. But I would have hoped that they'd at least include Russian subtitles for those of us who need all the help we can get!

[Bullseye]

Are these region free? And if so where can you order Russian movies?

[hok007]

"Region ABC" is the same as "Region free" (technically they have to code them for all three regions to make them "free").

[NeedforSpeed]

Taras Bulba one of the best movies about ukrainian cossacks and war.

Try www.ozon.ru
If they won't I doubt any other would.
You need to know Russian to place an order there.

Ozon has stopped shipping internationally.

Kniga.ru and Google Translate are your best option.

It seems they became absolutely lazy. Though I live in Russia myself, I stopped purchasing there either. They just increased their prices too much, in my opinion. But their service always was far better than at any other Russian online shop.

But I happen to know one private seller in Russia. He's my current source of all Russian releases right now. I can ask him if he would ship internationally. He doesn't have a website though, and I am not sure if he knows English. I communicate with him entirely via email.
