Andrei Zvyagintsev's follow-up to Russian masterpiece The Return banishes a family forever from its fragile idyll.

Andrey Zvyagintsev's astonishing debut The Return (2003) was a bare-bones mystery-thriller whose characters were elevated to the realm of archetypes. After a five year wait, his second feature The Banishment pulls off a similar trick, once again starring Konstantin Lavronenko as an errant father in what might be regarded as the return of The Return.
