The main “hero” of the film directed by Vladimir Fokin according to the script by Anatoly Grebnev “House for the Rich” (Russia, 2000) is an ancient Moscow mansion on Prechistenka. In the XVIII century it was the house of Denis Davydov. After 100 years, the squandered nobleman Burkovsky sells the family estate to a rich German buyer, and the adventures of a two-century house begin. His fate is the history of time and the people living in it. The house saw both Volunteers and Red commanders, he was both a choir and a poor communal. And so in the early 90s, the former “house for the rich” again becomes such: the pitiful corners again turns into luxurious apartments a new owner – a rich artist, poet and satirist Rumyanov. It gathers guests, and the viewer has the opportunity to think about aristocrats and degenerates.
In 2001, the film won Nika for Best Screenplay. It starred wonderful actors: Konstantin Khabensky, Evgeny Sidikhin, Valentin Gaft, Valery Barinov, Valery Garkalin, Alexander Feklistov Yuri Stepanov, Irina Grineva and Tatiana Okunevskaya. close

The Russian film No comment, shot in the genre of drama, is a piercing story about how senseless wars are being waged in the world now. The film was made in 2014, but it remains relevant to this day in the light of world conflicts and problems.
The authors of the film tried to answer many questions about life, love and war. What are the motives of those who choose to kill, no matter on whose side the man is fighting? Do they have any doubts about the right path? The protagonist of the film is a German who, for the sake of love for a woman, is ready to renounce not only his faith, relatives and country, but also himself - he will be called not Thomas, but Hamza, and he is a mercenary recruited by the Islamic military.
The second side of the picture is a Russian intelligence officer, an army captain, a loving husband and a caring family man. He is also involved in a military conflict, and the meeting of these people is inevitable.
What happens to Thomas, who was loved, cherished and cherished from early childhood by his parents, how does he change when he becomes Hamza? How difficult was it for him to convert to Islam, to live in a distant and previously unknown country, Chechnya? His first goal in life was his career, but now he is fighting the infidels. From the very first fight, he understands all the horrors he faces, sees a sea of blood and incredibly cruel deaths. A Russian officer arrives in Chechnya on duty, and he is called upon to fight the likes of Hamza. He serves the Motherland, faithful to the oath, but Hamza was different just recently.
In the war, Thomas realizes that he is in a nightmare of reality, it is not a computer game or a movie, and he may not survive in this world. He thinks that it would be great to give up everything and go back to his native Germany and continue his studies and work, but Islamic terrorists do not let anyone go for nothing. In addition to what is happening in the arena of military operations, the authorities in Chechnya regularly change, political changes occur in the whole world.
How will this nightmare end, how justified is the war, and how cruel are all those involved? The author shows the audience not his point of view, does not give assessments, which can be understood from the title – No comment – he only offers to look at two worlds, two lives, different fates that intersect in war. In parallel with the military events, viewers are invited to look at the life of ordinary Chechens, plunge into the life of a simple village in Chechnya, and see the world from another, not always visible and noticeable side. close
