>Well, absurdity and meaninglessness are almost characteristic of films of the 1980s and 1990s.
I can only partly agree. Although there were certainly many of those made, I think that there was also a simultaneous trend for more deep, meaningful films. It was no accident that Aleksandr Petrov got his artistic start precisely in that era...
I think that more than in any other period (especially the late 1980s - in the 1990s, the economic factor made itself felt more and more), it was a time when the directors were answerable only to themselves. They could show their best and worst parts, for good or ill. Such a situation could not last long, and indeed didn't, but there were a lot of interesting films made... alongside pointless ones like this one.
