Synopsis
A monologue film in the first person. Alexander Kalyagin talks about his childhood, about entering a medical school and working as a paramedic at an ambulance station, about working with Lyubimov in the Taganka Theater and about the decision to leave. Having survived the early death of his first wife, the artist raised a young daughter on his own. It is precisely in these tragic days that fame comes to him, he acts in his first star role, in the picture of V. Titov “Hello, I am your aunt!”. The film biography of Alexander Kalyagin is about sixty films. His most vivid role is Platonov in Nikita Mikhalkov’s film “Unfinished Piece for a Mechanical Piano.” No less significant was the theatrical history of the actor. He played in the best productions of Oleg Efremov and Anatoly Efros (Moscow Art Theater named after M. Gorky). Alexander Kalyagin devoted the last 25 years of his life to the theater ET CETERA, which, together with his course, created the Moscow Art Theater School.
