The Shadow Behind the Scenes

Nostalgia for times that have already become history. The author describes the atmosphere of the era and the inner state of the characters so realistically that you believe him immediately and unconditionally. The mid-sixties. The daughter of famous film director Roman Voronov has been kidnapped. An unprecedented and outrageous case! The demands of the criminal look no less absurd. To get the girl back alive and unharmed, Voronov must, by a certain deadline… adapt Gogol's story "Nose" into a screenplay. And — under no circumstances inform the police. Understanding that he is dealing with a dangerous psycho, Roman reluctantly begins to work. He does not yet know that the upcoming premiere will require new victims… A unique opportunity to temporarily return to the recent past and, feeling the full reality, live alongside the characters the most desperate stretch of their lives.
