If you loved By the Bluest of Seas, try Outskirts

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Boris Barnet, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to By the Bluest of Seas, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Outskirts is

Boris Barnet here gives us a war picture. A handful of Russians find themselves caught between familial duty and patriotic fervor during the First World War. You could say it's a noble effort.
