Directing
In a plane flying over Russia, there are people of different nationalities. Between the Dagestani Hasan and the Russian Kolya, a conflict erupts on a national basis, in which both, not embarrassed in expressions, become personal. Despite the passangers' best efforts, the conflict quickly escalates into a fight. With great difficulty, the fighters manage to be pulled apart, but it soon turns out that the plane is out of order and will have to be put on the water in an emergency. Anxiety in the cabin quickly turns into panic, and now those who recently fought each other are faced with a situation in which their disagreements are worth absolutely nothing.
This is a movie about the life and work of the Merited Worker of Arts of Russia, stage and film director Valery Akhadov. His professional life was a success, but his personal life was hardly easy. In the early 90-s at a highpoint in his career the director and his family had to leave Dushanbe together with his friends and colleagues from the Russian Drama Theatre. They all relocated to Magnitogorsk and began to work at the Pushkin Drama Theatre. 13 years later the VGIK graduate returned to the town of his youth and has been teaching young directors ever since. As usual he is full of creative ideas and plans.
A double portrait against the background of the past war: two participants of the Second world war-a former Wehrmacht soldier Wilfred and Alexandra, who lived in the occupied territory-talk about hatred, fear and death, which failed to destroy them.
