Vladimir Baranov

A ghost and a French marquis wander through the Winter Palace in St Petersburg, encountering scenes from many different periods of its history.

A satiric comedy which dissects the iconography of the 'Soviet Hero'. Original footage of a propaganda film from 1941 is the starting point for this parody of the ideological cliches of Soviet cinema. It follows the story of a Russian crew across the North Pole.

A movie about two sisters - thirteen year old Sveta, poor and abandoned by her father, who longs to go off and be a sniper in the army, and spoilt eight-year old Dina, doted on by her gangster father...

In 1944 a Soviet marine air force unit stationed near Murmansk is fighting off the German bombers attacking the British navy convoys supplying the Soviet Union with war materials under the lend-lease agreement.

Mirror film, intellectual game, tribute to Jean-Luc Godard and "Breathless". The narrative plot resumes the transposed history in post-Soviet St. Petersburg.

Marina met a charming man at the resort, who gave her an unforgettable two hours of love, which remained with him until departure from the airport. Time passes and Marina comes to Leningrad to visit her prince, but he is not at home. Wandering around an unfamiliar city, she ends up with the police. What awaits a beautiful lonely girl in a huge foreign city?

A heartwarming play about a difficult childhood: a half-crazed grandmother (Era Ziganshina) treads on her sick and weak grandson (Igor Sklyar).

The film is dedicated to Sergei Pavlovich Korolev, whose name is associated with the first stage of space exploration.

He is overly intelligent... He is genius... And he's just trying to make his life a little bit better in an new era post-communist Russia.

A musical retro drama. The story of the heroes of the film "Everyone is Dancing!" is inspired by the poetry of Leningrad lyricists of the 50s and 60s and partly by the motives of Fazil Iskander's story "Retribution". The film tells about the Ligovka district of St. Petersburg, known to every resident of St. Petersburg as a place where punks live.

A former police colonel robbed a bank. He believes that this is the only way to prevent the illegal export of gold, which goes through a channel controlled by the mafia.

The film is based on real events and tells about a major accident that occurred during the construction of another Leningrad metro station in the spring of 1974.

World War II is raging on the Eastern front but the soldier Nikanor has been sent to Siberia: bot as a prisoner, but as the leader of a motley group of entertainers who travel from village to village giving concerts. Still, Big Brother is watching and when the entertainers encounter a strange man in the woods there is trouble brewing. One of the performers falls in love with the mysterious backwoodsman, but the secret service is after him, too.

Pavel Shnyrev is a professional killer. He has a lot of enemies and a lot of problems. He is rushing, he is driven... Pavel's mother goes to the hospital, from her he learns that his father is alive. Pavel goes to a distant village and finds his father. Pavel's father has been blind for a long time, but this does not prevent him from living. He is always accompanied by a faithful assistant – a guide dog. Another life opens up to Pavel - the villagers, their simple way of life, the cares of the father. The mother also arrives, pursued by Paul's enemies, to take her son to a quiet place to "sit out". But Pavel does not leave the old man like a blind man, having felt a guide in him.

In the center of the plot is a senior investigator named Masha Shvetsova and her male colleagues. The plot is the most vital, but, like in “Streets of Broken Lanterns,” it is seasoned with a fair amount of humor - otherwise, how can the audience (and the heroes) endure countless morgues, identifications and other “cute” charms of the investigative routine?

The life of the intellectual Samgin, depicted against the backdrop of the grand panorama of Russian life from 1877 to 1917.
