Soviet film recs for pretentious people? (hexbear.net)

My wife and I have been exploring film from various times and places. She tends to prefer actiony/adventury films that aren't bleak while I am insufferable and maudlin, adoring self indulgent wallowing moodiness.

She found the rate of cuts of man with a movie camera too offputting, and has ruled out stalker because it's relentlessly depressing. Aside from dead season which isn't good but is funny because of history, and come and see which I wont be traumatising her with I don't know any soviet film. You weirdos might.

Any recommendations for showing the best or most interesting of? Things that are either high quality or showcase a unique character due cultural differences. It can be weird!

I'm sure I missed some puns and so on. One thing I didn't get was in the introduction to the diamond arm the credits said "filmed with a half hidden camera" according to the subtitles we had.

Is this a joke? Like it's pretending the footage is real in a very tongue-in-cheek way? or does it more mean literally some footage was filmed with a hidden camera for authentic reactions?

half hidden camera is just a joke!
