The film is dedicated to Victor Tsoi, who would have turned 50 on June 21, 2012. Victor Tsoi lived in an era of change, when one reality was replaced by another. He was one of the creators of the new world. His life is a set of paradoxes. A half-blooded boy who grew up in Leningrad, a rocker whose name rattled all over the Union, a musician who became a hero of the era - he sang, and millions sang along with him. When the news reported about a car accident near Riga on August 15, 1990, many were surprised to learn that Viktor Tsoi was only 28 years old! And he managed to live such a big life in such a small period of time. “Tsoi is a figure like an angel,” said Boris Grebenshchikov. Perhaps that’s why his fans say “Tsoi is alive” because angels don’t die. close
