The new film about Sergei Bondarchuk is not a traditional description of the life of a famous director and not a biopic timed to coincide with a round date. The creators of the film focus on a unique period in the history of world cinema - the post-war "thaw" euphoria and the time of great hopes, the key character of which was the author of "War and Peace". What was this man and cinematographer who shot both chamber dramas and megalomaniac battle projects? And how did he, the winner of many USSR awards, manage to become a figure of world significance and a link between the two superpowers during the Cold War era? close

There is sufficient movement to lead the spectator through the several processes of mixing, pouring, testing, etc. as if he were side by side with the principal. The lights and shadows are vivid, and the apparatus and other accessories complete a startling picture that will appeal to every beholder.” (Edison Catalog) close

40 years of space exploration is not only successful and unsuccessful launches, flights, landings on the moon or attempts of expeditions to distant worlds. It is also a fierce battle for space supremacy between two superpowers, the Soviet Union and the United States. The battle was not just to prove that capitalism or socialism was better. Both sides were preparing for a real war in space and came up with, at first glance, absolutely fantastic things, many of which, due to secrecy, become known only after many years. Star Wars: Adult Games is a secret space movie. A space that has almost never been in the newspapers for 40 years. close
