former Soviet Union, which disintegrated on December 25, 1991. I think the protagonist of this film, Danila Bagrov, may be interpreted as the disintegrated Russian subject.
This professional soldier who participated in the first Chechen war (which broke out on December 11, 1994), with his combat training and literacy, easily swept away the evil forces in the city.
It can be seen that although the disintegration of Russia has skyrocketed in prices, the dollar is flowing, and layers of so-called power groups have floated along the way, but they can't stand the blow!
The Germans in the film, they are destitute and living in a cemetery, but still help the protagonist to map out the transit point of the operation, heal the wounds, and bury the enemy. These human-shaped symbols, which were rivals in the past, indicate that even if Russia disintegrates, it will still be respected and assisted by its European partners?
In the film, the protagonist rescues a sound engineer from the gang, and the whole film runs through the clues of the protagonist's love of pop music. It is to express that Russia is inseparable from art, no matter how the form of art changes? Or is the director shouting that artists and filmmakers need to be cared for?
In the film, the protagonist came to the big city of Petersburg from his hometown in the countryside and came into contact with two women. A tram worker, a married woman; a young girl who walks the streets and anesthetizes herself; perhaps it means that Russia needs love and spontaneous support from the people at the bottom. Unfortunately, it seems that worker women love their husbands more, and drug addicts love money and money more. poison.
These should be a true description of the current situation of Russian society at that time, because it was filmed in 1997, and it is also a good record of things of that era, which can be said to be authentic! It is no wonder that it has received such high favor and evaluation from the local audience!
As for the brothers, the film is not the Karamazov brothers, but the brotherhood of brothers who still keep their promises and show compassion in the face of betrayal and betrayal.
You can betray me, but I will not abandon you! Is this about mainstream Russia, or about the little brothers in the CIS? !
The film also launched a sequel in 2000. The protagonist Danila Bagrov went to Moscow and met his comrades who participated in the Chechen war.
Konstantin Gromov was in Moscow and learned about his twin brother Dmitry, a professional hockey player in the United States. However, the team owner colluded with his Russian partner to force his brother to sign an unfair contract.
In order to restore the true colors of things and avenge her friends, Danila Bagrov went to Chicago alone...
Come to think of it, this is really a preemption and revenge film. Leaving the land of Russia, the heritage of Russia is lost!
At the same time, two years after the protagonist of the film, Sergei Podlov Jr., died unexpectedly on the set. oh~~~
