The events of the movie take place in the city of Odessa. A guy named Sasha sees a beautiful girl on the street and, following her, inadvertently causes a car crash. The driver of the car turns out to be none other than this girl's father, who is also a screenplay writer currently experiencing a writer's block. Instead of demanding money from Sasha for repairs to his vehicle, the writer makes Sasha tell him all the details of his new relationship with the girl he saw on the street, not knowing that this girl (Lena) is his own daughter. To make things more complex, Lena has a younger sister Dasha who begins to like Sasha. close
Soviet comedy-satire “Pena” united such actors as A. Papanov, L. Kuravlev, R. Bykov, L. Udovichenko, E. Sanaeva. The directorship of A. Stefanovich and more
Soviet comedy-satire “Pena” united such actors as A. Papanov, L. Kuravlev, R. Bykov, L. Udovichenko, E. Sanaeva. The directorship of A. Stefanovich and the script written by S. Mikhalkov make the film untrivial and uncharacteristic for Soviet cinema. The chamber play on which the film is made is aimed at ridiculing the adaptors.
Pavel Makhonin, director of a large enterprise (A. Papanov), is tormented by only one thing. In the profession he has reached great heights, but further advancement requires higher education. Makhonin has everything a Soviet man can dream of: a beautiful life without scarcity, imported things, a cozy atmosphere, connections in certain circles and his man Poludushkin (R. Bykov). The director can buy everything but the mind, which he critically needs to defend the dissertation. Mahonin’s favorite phrase is “Kings can do anything.” That’s why he started buying a degree.
The enemy among his own
Someone whispered to Paul the main thing and brought with the right people, including a certain Soloma (L. Kuravlev). Soloma is the courier of a modest corporation, whose dealers for a fee “within reason” can write a worthy dissertation. Everything goes to get the title, Mahonin happily rubs his hands and prepares a banquet. But, to the general surprise, a new person comes to the family. This is Victoria's fiancé, Mahonin's daughter. Young people have serious relationships, everything goes to the wedding, only acquaintance with the family of the bride is postponed. Victoria is going to guess the moment and show her betrothed at a banquet in honor of receiving her father's doctorate.
The groom is a promising young journalist Prosov, who conducts a special investigation. He attacked the trail of fraudsters who write “left” scientific works. At the banquet, Prosov talks about his project to Mahonin. Fright and confusion at the first moment are replaced by a phase of violent activity. He must at all costs prevent the publication of the material.
Features of the picture
• Surreal scenes are fantastic dreams of Mahonin, which reveal the essence of careerism. A comical dream about a visit to America, where an important official is received at the level of presidents. The tragedy of Mahonin conveys the dream of an autorodeo and falling into an abyss directly from his own office, pursuing his gangsters, outwardly similar to Soloma.
• The film combines uncharacteristic for the Soviet ironic comedy rapidity of events and rhythmic rock. Scenes change very quickly, transferred from the press club of the film festival to the deck of the ship, to an elite indoor restaurant or a country pool. The screen shows the gap between ordinary workers and the “cream” of society.
• It is noteworthy that in the scene of the film festival Alla Pugacheva played the role of an aspiring singer and sang a song, and the backing vocalist was Mikhail Boyarsky. close
