Idealistic and young Doctor Mitya (Oleg Dolin) goes to work in a remote steppe region of Kazakhstan. He brings a modicum of civilization to a barbaric world mired in alcoholism and violence. The physician expects his fiancée to join him there. At last, she arrives, only to let him know that she had met another man whom she wants to marry. An existential crisis ensues. The most sympathetic character in the village brutally stabs the doctor in the stomach.
Despite the film's slow pacing, Wild Field was widely praised by Russian critics for its cinematography and exploration of existentialist angst.[2] The film won multiple Nika Awards including the "Best Screenplay" (Lutsik and Samoryadov), "Best Actor" (Oleg Dolin) and "Best Music" (Aleksei Aigi) categories.[3] It also won the "Best Feature Film" Golden Eagle Award.[4] At the 65th Venice International Film Festival the film won the Art Cinema Award.[5]
