Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- A natural pick for anyone drawn to the darker side of the street and the curious. Expect to bring it up in conversation afterwards. Liked O.J.: Made in America? This is a good next one.
- The mood
- Gritty, eye-opening.
- The pace
- Moves through the story clearly, at 51 min. Short enough for a weeknight.

- It's in Russian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.
Sockeye, a species of wild salmon, is born in Kamchatkan waters and spends its entire life in the Pacific Ocean. Only once does it return to fresh waters — to give offspring, start the circle of life, and die. It is an inexhaustible resource that feeds billions of people on the planet, restored every year. But soon, we may find ourselves facing the unimaginable: humans will exhaust the inexhaustible.
