The Russian film “Adults” is shot in the genre of melodrama, it is a film almanac collected from eight different stories. However, the stories are united not only by style, but also by semantic load, plot - all the characters are trying to survive in the modern world, filled with cruelty and disappointment, and find their happiness. Directors of the film Mikhail Romanovsky and Inga Shchepanovskaya set themselves a super task - to demonstrate the life and desire to find a place under the sun of an individual, but combining several stories into a single whole.
What problems do we face every day? The film tells about a young man who is worried about his closest friend, about two guys in love with the same girl, about a young woman, a dance teacher. The life of each of them is filled with experiences, tragedies, dreams, and everyone needs to look for a way out of this or that situation, survive and at the same time be happy. We are surrounded by similar characters every day, and perhaps we are one of these people, because we too can accidentally fall in love, make a mistake, or become inflamed with the desire to help others, despite the fact that they do not seek this help.
There are no complex, unique characters and superheroes in the picture, there are ordinary people, housemates, colleagues at work. The world around them and us is sometimes really absurd, and the events that are happening defy logical description. We need to survive in this world because we are all adults. If, faced with the realities of life, forget about it, and begin to behave like a child, events can begin to unfold quite unexpectedly. Is it difficult to be a big child, and do you have to follow all the rules of the adult world? The answer to this question is hidden in the film itself, and the directors suggest that we find it. close
