Зеркало

Today's movie Зеркало (The Mirror) for me was a tough movie to try and figure out and to watch. It was interesting but I don't think there really was a plot in the movie. At the beginning we meet a boy who is being examined by a Doctor. The Doctor is trying to make it so that the boy will not stutter. The way she is talking to the boy makes it sound like he is in a trance. I am not sure where this fits into the rest of the movie. Quickly after this seen we find a woman sitting on a fence watching a man walk by. This man comes up and starts to talk to her and introduces himself as a Doctor also. I am not sure if there is a tie between these two scenes or not? This movie also bounces back and fourth between postwar and war time. I have been trying to figure out this film for most of the day. I am hoping that the disscusstion in class will help clear it up.
