Movies

The Legend of Siegfried
Editor
The film is about the long-term relationship between the director and the character of her first film, the French indie artist, musician and director Siegfried, known as Sig. The story is dedicated to the experience of growing up, emancipation and finding their own identity in life and in art. The film raises questions about the nature of the student-teacher relationship, which inevitably involves submission and conflict, and the nature of the director and hero relationship, which is based on love and a little manipulation.

Cardiopulitika
Director of Photography
Cardio surgeon Sergey Sukhanov, who has performed more than 20000 operations on the open heart during his career, has always believed that the only values in this world are human life and health. He managed to convince the authorities that the Perm region needed its own cardiological industry and by mid-20000s a huge modern Cardiac Center was to have been built. The government allocated substantial funds for the construction of the Center, but its completion deadline was constantly postponed. Tired of fighting with regional officials, Professor Sukhanov sent on to work in the 200-year-old mansion, housing the old clinic. In late 2011, Sukhanov got an unexpected offer from the Kremlin to head Vladimir Putin's election headquarters.

Arrhythmia
Editor
The main character of the film, yesterday's student, and now a doctor of the district clinic and part-time creator of the BEZ Promo promotion label, cannot choose what to associate his future with - medicine or organizing parties in Moscow clubs. Both seem to him to be an important mission. Both are service to people.

Idiot
Screenplay
The story of the return – from the return of documents to the return to life. Unnecessary, superfluous, idiotic-so unflattering Andrey speaks about himself. However, all 30 years of his life could be the script of a feature film. Having escaped from a mental hospital, in which he was locked up with a lifelong diagnosis of "incapacity", he ended up in a large – scale madhouse-the capital. Without documents and a roof over his head, Andrey is looking for ways to regain his right to a free life. Now his route is official offices and endless psychiatric examinations. The goal is to return the legal capacity.
