Petrov's Flu

"Petrov's Flu" is a unique blend within the science fiction genre, combining elements of surrealism and psychological drama. Typical elements of science fiction such as exploration of altered states of consciousness and blurred lines between reality and fantasy are present. However, unlike traditional sci-fi which often focuses on futuristic technology or space exploration, this film roots its story in contemporary post-Soviet Russia, exploring the personal and societal impacts of illness and imagination. Its narrative shifts seamlessly between reality and hallucination, offering a deeply introspective and metaphorical experience. The film stands out by emphasizing the human condition and social context over conventional sci-fi tropes.
