Валерий, портной
Alexander Gerasimov
The «Eye of God» is dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the Pushkin Museum. It shows how progressive and pro-West Russians can be, when it comes to comprehending the essence of beauty. Ivan Tsvetayev, a village priest's son, the founder of the museum, wanted the new generation of "Ivans" to understand that we are Europe, while Antiquity is our mutual cradle.

They have lost track of each other. Three stories of betrayal, love and ageing are told in parallel. In fact, unknown to our heroes, their paths cross and their lives become connected. But they are not aware of it even when they reunite for a breaking performance at their graduation anniversary.
Vita, an employee of a private spy agency, is handed a case of tapping into and listening to the mysterious life of a new "client".

From this point on nothing is what it seems, as Vita becomes entangled into a deadly game of cat and mouse.
