“ At the beginning of the film, the life of Alexeev develops gradually with numerous flashbacks, amorous scenes, unveiling of the Sixtiers (Soviet generation with liberal and anti-totalitarian views) and ends with an unexpected twist of the plot. Once, the key hero gets to know himself better, about his talent and the legacy he has left to others. The image of the past is built on partial and fake hero’s memories, since there no true memories left. An ambiguous image of Alexeev is projected exactly through the flashbacks into the Soviet times full of secret agents with guns, guitars and knitted sweaters, neat shirts’ collars and “Melody” records.
At the same time, the film is about love and how one can express feelings in all possible ways feeling nothing inside or how to say nothing being passionately in love for the whole life. Time can be turned back if someone loves you.
The film made a debut in the competition program at the Russian Kinotavr Film Festival in 2014. Additionally, Alexander Zbruev was given a prize named after Mikhail Ulyanov for the Best Male Acting Role at the Moscow Premier Festival. In Ukraine, the film was presented at the Odessa International Film Festival. ”
