An almost unknown girl Frida accompanied Aleksandr Volodin to the front. When he returned, he married her. A sense of duty and gratitude bound them, but this did not prevent him from continuing to search for a female ideal... The name of the poet and playwright Aleksandr Volodin is familiar to everyone who loves russian cinema and theater. The films Elder Sister, Five Evenings, The Magician, Autumn Marathon, the famous performances of the Tovstonogov's BDT and Efremov's Sovremennik, staged according to his plays, were remembered for their unique intonation, the soft, not at all edifying voice of a person who knows something about life that we pass by without noticing. Most of Volodin's works are autobiographical, he writes about his generation, about the generation "scorched by war".

Movie inspired by life of saintly Elder Paisios (1924 1994) and other Orthodox monks. Severeal stories of young and old monk life. Sometimes funny, but all about true christian love.

But, in the end, without her, without her 22 films, the history of world cinema would be incomplete. In our country, her name has become one of the undisputed geniuses-Tarkovsky, Parajanov, Herman, Sokurov. The brilliant Kira Muratova looks at a person with irony, as if from a distance and from above, as if at a funny puppet theater, but her gaze is full of sympathy. It divides artists into two categories: preachers and gamblers. Of course, he considers himself one of the latter. Chance is her muse. Improvisation is a feature of the method. And what is life but improvisation? In contrast to Rene Clair with his phrase " my film is ready. It remains only to remove it", goes to the set, opening up to life, the game of chance.

The whole world is a theater, and the people in it are movie actors. Dulustan Mukhin, a simple guy from a Yakut village, once became a star. Hollywood is ahead.

Grigory Pomerantz did all the war from 1941 to 1945, roamed the Stalingrad circle, was in all the hottest battles, went all the way to Berlin. His observations and reflections on the meaning of war and man caught in the war are shocking. Nobody had thought of this way in the Great Patriotic War.

The time for letters has passed. The last words that came from the Gulag became a document. The time for letters stopped then, but continues to shudder today. Evil repeats itself invariably. We try to remember events and destinies, but the unceremonious history teaches nothing. Letters from eternity. Letters to the future.

It just seems that to become a great artist, it is enough to quit the stock exchange office, go far away to a tropical island and change the top hat for a loincloth. And that's it, Paul Gauguin is ready. No, not all. He also needs a woman, in this case just a girl, Tehura, who will open the earthly paradise of Tahiti to him. Gauguin is a genius, but he could not invent Tekhura. He could only write it off with his beloved.
