Moscow Mother Montreal

The story of the young engineer Anton, constantly running around in search of work and the opportunity to prove himself. His life becomes like a carousel of monotonous fruitless attempts, but one day fate throws him an excellent proposal - a serious company, a big project, a life abroad. This proposal puts the hero in front of the choice between the future and the one most desired for him, the last, but the most expensive, that remains in his present life.

I Know How to Knit

The story of Tanya, who is suddenly hit by a feeling that her existence is hopelessly devoid of meaning, is set in St. Petersburg. The city landscape provides the backdrop for Tanya's ups and downs as she takes drastic action, gets into scrapes and grows up as a result of the trials - both deliberate and accidental - that she faces.

Steppe Gods

In the summer of 1945, between the Victory over Germany and the war with Japan, 10-year-old Petka from a Far Eastern village tries to save a dying friend from a mysterious illness. But the only one who can help him is the Japanese prisoner Hirotaro from a military camp nearby. Petka and Hirotaro will have to find a common language, trust each other and call for help not only science, but even ancient spirits.

District Center

The regional center is not the center of paradise, but a small settlement, lost in the Orenburg steppes. the bus station, where regular buses arrive from all over the area, is a place of meeting and parting. This is where Radik, the protagonist of the story, comes to meet his older sister Rita, who is to take custody of him and his brothers and sisters. A large amount of money falls into the hands of the boy, which he wants to appropriate. But money is always a temptation. And temptation is where the main plot of humanity began.

Miracle

Police Lieutenant Denis Orlov is forced to infiltrate the Miracle Alcoholics Anonymous group. This community is regularly visited, and, in fact, overseen by former hard-line authority Vasily Sapogov. Back in the 90s, Boots and his gang stole the cup of the Russian tsar of the Time of Troubles Vasily Shuisky from the museum of the city of Electrospas, where his fake was later "triumphantly returned". But an exhibition of federal significance is coming soon, and Denis must now find the original.
