Portrait of the Artist on a Historical Background (2023)
The story presented to the viewer is both the story of Lenfilm, the most difficult period of his life, and the story of the Lenfilm artist Viktor Ivanov, who preserved human dignity and the history of our country in difficult conditions. The time in which Victor lived and worked was not easy: perestroika with its illusions and disappointments. One of the foundations of the film is Vitya's latest work, the cartoon "Sirin", which became his kind of message, a story about his time. The film also features numerous chronicle materials and interviews with famous St. Petersburg cinematographers.

Masterful Movie
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
